Tuesday’s ad is for Léopold, from 1933. 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 Brasserie Léopold, which had been located in Brussels, before closing in 1981. The poster was created by famed Belgian artist Georges Prosper Remi, better known as Hergé. Hergé’s best known for his series The Adventures of Tintin.
