Tex Willer's adventures begin with this series. It is the publisher's longest strip series, which began in September 1948 and ended in June 1967 and divided into thirty-six successive series.
Given the high number of series (36) and therefore of total numbers (973) it is very difficult to complete, especially if it is a register by register.
