Vintage food and beverage posters

 The New Potato reminded me in their post today just how much I love vintage advertising posters, specifically those related to food and beverage. It's not that these posters are particularly revolutionary in their marketing strategy, nor that the products they push forward are even the most appealing to me. But they never fail to conjure glamorously frivolous images in my mind, where women in gowns and satin gloves dance from one eligible bachelor to the next, never once putting their champagne flute down to rest. Call it nostalgia for a time and place I've never known, but it looks to me like a good party.




A favorite: "Rouy d'Or: Health Cheese."

More vintage posters on L'Affichiste.
