It represents the cover page of the 15th album of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo’s adventures of Asterix and Obelix in 1970 in a French Magazine under the title “La Zizanie”, and edited in English in 1972.





The texts are from the story inside the book on page 17.





Engraver and editor are unknown, the flat was acquired on a flea market years ago among old stuffs.
Obelix is 45mm high, Asterix 25mm.







Text is here added on the photography, but will be added on a plasticard on the flat before framing. The flat here is on a black velvet sheet.
