"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. In this facsimile edition, it appears as it did 70 years ago.
