Wednesday’s ad is for Bière St. Nicolas de Port, from 1933. From the late 1800s until the 1940s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster is for the Bière St. Nicolas de Port, located in the Lorraine region of northeast France. The brewery was open until 1985, when the old brewery became what is known today as the Musée Francais de la Brasserie, or French Brewery Museum. The poster was created by French artist Marcellin Auzolle.
