abstract
  • Laszlo Carriedas is a wealthy entrepreneur and millionaire with about ten million dollars in his personal bank account (a large sum of money in the 1960s). He was involved in many fields of business including aircraft construction, clothing, oil, cinema, the press and the drink brand Sani-Cola. He is only seen in Flight 714 and Tintin and Alph-Art. He is assisted by his employee Spalding. The name "Carreidas" is a pun on "carré d'as" which is the French for the poker term "four aces", hence his company's logo (seen on the fine of the Carreidas 160) includes the four suits of a pack of playing cards (clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades). Hergé based Carreidas on Marcel Dassault, who possessed a similar combination of wealth, aeronautical engineering genius, and quaint notions of fashion (Dassault's wardrobe remained frozen in the mid-1930s).
