    Methuen Children's Book Edition - 2nd and later printings. Story and art by Herge. Cigars of the Pharaoh" is one of Tintin's earliest adventures. He and Snowy are on a cruise to Egypt when they happen to meet Professor Sophocles Sarcophagus (the first of Tintin's absent-minded professors) and join his expedition. But they become embroiled in a complicated scheme involving a fakir, cigars marked with an unusual brand, and Rajijah, the poison of madness. This story was written in 1932, but in the '50s was shortened and rewritten. Hardcover, 9-in. x 11 1/2-in., 64 pages, full color.
