Sunday’s ad is for Guignies Extra Speciale, from the 1950s. From the late 1800s until the 1980s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. I’ve been posting vintage European posters all last year and will continue to do so in 2020. This poster was created for the Guignies Brunehault, whose official name was Allard et Groetembril which was located in Guignies, Brunehaut, Belgium. It was founded in 1890, but closed in 1990, though a new brewery using the old name opened a couple of years later. This poster was created by an artist who appears to sign their name Camberty.
