Gli Albi Del Giornalino

A short-lived but fondly remembered Italian anthology series from Edizioni San Paolo, Gli Albi Del Giornalino ran for 14 issues between 1972 and 1973, offering young readers a mix of adventure, humor, and educational comics. The series is particularly notable for the frequent contributions of writer-artist Gianni De Luca, whose dynamic, cinematic style brought a distinctive visual energy to the stories he worked on alongside writers Piero Zanotto and Claudio Bertieri. It stands as a compact but charming snapshot of early-1970s Italian comics for children, showcasing the period’s blend of entertainment and moral instruction.
