Details

The brochure for young people was published in Dutch, French and English. It was a realization of the publicity agency PubliArt - agency founded by Raymond Leblanc and led by Guy Dessicy. René Follet only carried out a few assignments for PubliArt. He drew, among other things, the cover illustration and one inside illustration. The illustrations portray the climate of optimism and unlimited belief in the future that prevailed throughout the world exhibition. The use of the colors is also in keeping with the zeitgeist: from '58 orange, red and yellow came into fashion. For René Follet, the brochure is the symbol of a pivotal moment, namely the run-up to the next century. This edition remained in the memory of many visitors to the exhibition and is still a sought-after item for collectors of comics and Expo 58. Publications about the World Exhibition always feature the cover of this brochure, which was specially made for young people. Image three is the rare wrapper that was wrapped around the brochure, illustrated by Jean Graton.
