AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Original vintage advertising board for Nain d'Alsace (Fine Beers from Saint-Quentin), designed by the artist Seguin around 1950–1960.
The poster shows an atmospheric mid-century illustration with a copper brewing kettle, a glass of beer with a rich foamy head and a smiling woman.
In the 1950s and 1960s, French breweries sometimes reproduced their iconic paper posters on thin, glossy plates of plexiglass or celluloid.
These boards were intended for heavy use in and around cafes and bistros. The material protected the image against moisture, smoke and dirt, causing the colors to still look very fresh and vibrant decades later. At the top there are holes to hang the board directly on the wall or behind the bar with a cord.
40 x 42 cm
Defects: one corner at the bottom left is broken, and the plexiglass has scratches.
