Captain Haddock, Tintin and Snowy! And is that a guy with a turban? Which book was that from?

This is from Tintin in Tibet! In New Delhi, Haddock leaps spectacularly (albeit ungracefully) into this unsuspecting taxi, a 1938 Cadillac Fleetwood. Driver is an Indian fellow with a turban.

Unfortunately, lovely Castafiore isn't in any of the car models of the collection. But Prof. Calculus and the irrepressible Thompson and Thomson twins are!
