The only street market dedicated to the world of Hergé gets underway July 18, 2009 at 4:00 pm in Brussels. Bringing together approximately 40 merchants from many different nations, there are sure to be interesting finds.
The inspiration of the market comes directly from the book, Secret of the Unicorn where we saw Tintin purchase the fateful model ship that launched a two-book series and now a major motion picture by Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson.
Lest you think this is just another marketing tie-in to the upcoming film, this is actually the fifth year of the market at Place du Jeu de Balles in the heart of Marolles, just a stones throw fom la rue Terre-Neuve, the street that inspired Labrador Road, Tintin’s home address during his early adventures.
Even so, with all the excitement of Tintin’s 80th birthday, and the buzz surrounding the upcoming films, this year’s market should be particularly exciting.

Hi folks. We are back from what was an awesome trip to South Korea. While I am suffering from jetlag at the moment (Korea is 13 hours ahead of us), I am awake enough to share some photos. The trip took us 10 days with the first few in Seoul, getting acclimated. We then flew down to Jeju Island, which is kind of like Maine and Oregon in Island form. Jeju sits on the southern most tip of South Korea at the confluence of the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan. Tons of old volcanoes and sooooo lovely. We wrapped up the trip back in Seoul. So much to see. I wish I had more images of Tintin in Korea. Honestly, though, we were so distracted with what we were doing, Tintin didn’t make it out of the camera bag as often as he should have. Oh well, maybe next time.

We just found a small batch of never-before-worn vintage Broken Ear/L’Oreille Cassée Tintin t-shirts. The shirts were printed in 1996 and are printed in color on both sides. For more info, click the image.
In addition to the vintage shirts, we also got in a few Snowy t-shirts for kids. Click the image to see more detail.
Finally, we are pleased to announce that our super-large Tintin tote bags have arrived. We have been waiting a long time for these and were blown away at how awesome they are. Printed on both sides and made from 100% cotton, these oversized totes are perfect for toy storage or a picnic. For more details, click on the image.
