Alfa Yayınları, founded in 1978 by Ali Recan, played a major role in introducing Tintin to Turkish readers, beginning its first Tintin publications in 1980 and continuing with multiple series throughout the decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"616\" data-end=\"1110\"\u003eThis softcover edition is presented entirely in black and white, a result of economic and practical publishing decisions of the time. Since original Tintin albums had been printed in full color since 1941, producing high-quality color editions in Turkey was costly. As a solution, publishers reproduced the artwork in black and white, making the series more accessible to local audiences. This approach gives the book a distinct vintage character that sets it apart from later color editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1112\" data-end=\"1410\"\u003eAs Book Number 1 of Alfa Yayınları’s second Tintin series, this edition holds special significance for collectors, marking the beginning of a new publishing phase in Turkey’s Tintin history. It remains a desirable piece for enthusiasts interested in early Turkish adaptations of Hergé’s work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1020\" data-start=\"1001\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1433\" data-end=\"1487\"\u003e• Title: Tintin in the Congo (\u003cem data-start=\"1467\" data-end=\"1484\"\u003eTenten Kongo’da\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1489\" data-end=\"1511\"\u003e• Series: Tintin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1513\" data-end=\"1592\"\u003e• Series Position: Book Number 1 of Alfa Yayınları’s second Tintin series\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1594\" data-end=\"1615\"\u003e• Author: Hergé\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1617\" data-end=\"1650\"\u003e• Publisher: Alfa Yayınları\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1652\" data-end=\"1698\"\u003e• Year of Turkish publication: Mid-1980s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1700\" data-end=\"1725\"\u003e• Language: Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1727\" data-end=\"1775\"\u003e• Format: Softcover, black and white comic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1777\" data-end=\"1877\"\u003e• Printing Context: Black and white reproduction due to high costs of color printing in Turkey\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47542956392586,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_239bd26b-0f9d-45f9-93f7-8ffc000eb848.jpg?v=1767716688","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/tintin-tintin-in-the-congo-mid-1980s-turkish-edition-comic-turkey-1","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
