Early 1900s french poster about beans
I work at a linenbacking/poster restoration place. I just started cracking up today at this ridiculously gorgeous but unnecessary antique French poster. Like who fucking needed this poster about the types of beans in 1910s France and explain to me why they needed this amazing layout to explain it. The French were known for their poster design during the late 1800s and early 1920s so we regularly see French advertising and travel posters from this era but this has been one of the most bizarre posters I’ve seen in the shop.
