In the 1970s, a number of books were published under the title "The seventh art beyond".

The editions each have a different subtitle, but are (directly or indirectly) related to the Belgian comic strip.

The books listed here on Catawiki are numbered 320 to 322. Does that mean that many more books have been published under this title?

Furthermore "Beyond the seventh art - History of the comic strip in Belgium" has apparently been released in two different versions ....

Who can tell more about the above?

Thanks in advance!

The titles under "Beyond the seventh art" first appeared as publications of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (with beige cover). There they were respectively given the numbers 320 to. 322, because there had already been 319 other publications in that series ("texts and documents").

= & gt; 3 different releases

They were then reissued (with color cover), without any numbering. But that's actually a different sequence and we can actually use 1, 2 and 3 there. 320, 321 and 322 is certainly not possible here.

= & gt; 2 x 3 = 6 different editions

In addition, these booklets (both versions: with beige cover and with colored cover) have all been published in French.

= & gt; 4 x 3 = 12 different editions

And that the ministry's publications (with beige cover) were also published in 4 other languages (German, English, Spanish and Italian).

= & gt; 8 x 3 = 24 different editions!

I have a few different versions here, but I'm still looking for the most - who can help me :-).

Anyway: I will adjust the 4 publications that are already in it soon (read: this weekend) (because as it is now, it does not make sense) and add the ones that are not yet included. (It will only be quite a job to start filling out all the different artists and series that it contains).
