Møt meg i Malaga (Meet Me in Malaga) is a ca. late 80s educational game made by the youth and sports division of the norwegian Ministry of Culture and Science. You are trying to make your way from Norway to Malaga on interrail safely, making good choices, navigating hazards like drugs, gambling and STDs. A friend of mine when i was little actually bought this game based on the written description in a mailorder catalog, hoping for some kind of racy and illicit game. I guess maybe that's what it's supposed to be?

Hi, Who is credited on those Patrick Nagel digitizations? They aren't photographs, so are they crude scans, or independently made, renderings by creditable artists? Love just about every thing you post, best to you.
Hey, thanks a lot. My Patrick Nagel tag has a couple different things in it, but i think I know which ones you mean. There's a few posts with similar style and presentation that I like a lot. (This is one) Those seem like obvious computer recreations to me bc they're so clean and crisp. You wouldn't get lines like that from a scan. A few differ a bit proportionally from the originals too, so that's another sign. I'd actually never seen them with artist information or packed as part of anything besides cd-rom collections of images before, but I had another look now and actually found a few more, including one with a name :)
Or not... I just noticed many of these similar renderings have a letter "j" in the corner, and one of them is another version of this picture. If you cycle between the two there's an obvious difference, so I guess it's just not certain.
