At the Costume Shop!

To end the year in style, what could be better than having a little fun with a game illustrated by Hergé? Here are the original instructions...
"Tintin and his friends, who were to attend a fancy-dress party, went to the costume shop. Each chose a disguise to their liking: Tintin dressed up as a Roman, Captain Haddock as a Gaul, Professor Calculus as a cuirassier of the First French Empire, Thomson I as a Spanish guard of the 16th century, and Thompson II as a knight of the late 15th century (see illustration, from left to right).
Just as the costumier was about to hand each of them their headgear and weapon, he was called to the phone.
– 'Gentlemen', he said 'I have to step away for a moment. Please choose for yourselves the helmet and the weapon that go with your costume. You'll find them all in this pile here!'
Example of an answer: TINTIN : helmet no.13 ; weapon letter P. »
