Tuesday’s ad is for Basler Löwenbrau, from 1905. From the late 1800s until the 1970s, 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 was made for Basler Löwenbrau, or Basler Löwenbraeu, a Swiss brewery located in Basel, a city in northwestern Switzerland on the river Rhine. It’s Switzerland’s third-largest city. The brewery was founded in 1861 as Brauerei H. Gaudens, but was renamed Brauerei Löwenbrau in 1891, and was also then known as Basler Löwenbrau or Brasserie du Lion. It closed in 1914. The poster is a beautiful illustration of a man driving a beer wagon with the brewery seen in the distance. It created by Swiss painter Burkhard Mangold.

Monday’s ad is for the Brauerei Haldengut Winterthur, from 1975. From the late 1800s until the 1970s, 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 was made for Brauerei Haldengut, in Winterthur, Switzerland, located in the Canton of Zürich. It was founded between 1841 and 42, when “Ferdinand Ernst expanded his farm ‘Haldengut’ on the southern slope of the Lindberg in Winterthur to include a stately brewery. They began brewing in 1843. In 1994, Heineken acquired the brewery, and they closed it in 1997. The poster is a pretty elaborate cross stitch work, which both my Mom and Grandmother were big fans of doing. I even still have a cool sampler that my grandmother did in the 1960s or so, though it has no beer in it, sadly. It was created by Swiss artist Adolf Wirz.

The ad was created fairly recently, but pays homage to earlier posters. It was created by Swiss artist Jack J. Kunz.

The ad is a beautiful illustration of a woman server carrying at least eight large mugs of beer and although she looking our way, she appears to be waiting for the train that’s coming into the station just behind her. Sadly, this was the largest image of the ad that I could find. Unfortunately, I don’t know who the artist is who created it.
