Vidocq (Den Haag, 1988)

Hans G. Kresse signed only two times for an audience during his career: in 1977 in Angoulême and on november 11 1988 at the Strip-3-Daagse festival in The Hague, the Netherlands. It was on this occasion I met Kresse and asked him, to his big surprise, for a drawing of Vidocq, the character he created in 1965-1970 for the Dutch comic magazine Pep and continued in 1986-87 for Eppo Wordt Vervolgd magazine with three new stories.

Added are the four Dutch book covers of Vidocq, published in 1970 - 1990.
