Sunday’s ad is for La Bière de Luxe Phénix, from maybe the 1940s or early 50s. 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 du Phénix, which was founded in 1886 in Marseille, which is located in the Bouches-du-Rhône area in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region of southern France. A brewery had been on the same site since 1821, and a new one was rebuilt in 1872, and 14 years later it was bought by a new owner, who called it the Brasserie et Malterie du Phénix. They later changed their name to the Brasserie de la Valentine, and today it is owned by the Heineken Group. This is another of the variation views of the poster, with the altered perspective of the waiter looking to his left rather than staring straight ahead. This one is also using “de Luxe” in the name and included the text “… en tête des meilleures!,” which Google translates as “… at the top of the best! I don’t know who the artist is who created this poster.

Saturday’s ad is for La Bière Phénix, from maybe the 1940s or early 50s.

They later changed their name to the Brasserie de la Valentine, and today it is owned by the Heineken Group. I believe this version may be the original, because unlike the previous ones, there is no logo on the glass (There are at least two different Phénix logos I’ve seen used) and there’s no text on the tray (which is used on at least one version). Also, in the first image, it appears to be signed by an artist although unfortunately I still can’t make it out. In the image at the bottom, from an exhibition at the Musée Européen de la Bière, may also be the first version used as an ad or poster, since it also has no embellishments.

Friday’s ad is for La Bière Phénix, from maybe the 1940s or early 50s.

They later changed their name to the Brasserie de la Valentine, and today it is owned by the Heineken Group. This sign is yet another variation on the posters from the past two days, although the perspective is slightly altered, with the waiter looking to his left rather than staring straight ahead. I don’t know who the artist is who created this poster.

Tuesday’s ad is for Norton, from maybe the 1950s, but possibly earlier. 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 DesChamps Celles which was located in Celles, in the Hérault region of southern France. I wasn’t able to find much information about the brewery, except that it must have closed some time ago, and the town had an exhibition of the town’s history, including the brewery, in 2013 and/or 2016. I don’t know who the artist is who created this poster.

Thursday’s ad is for Blonde de Mars, from maybe the 1900s or 10s.

I’ve been posting vintage European posters all last year and will continue to do so in 2020. This poster was created for Brasserie de Mons-en-Barœul, which was located in Mons-en-Barœul, which is “is a French commune, located in the department of Nord in the region of Hauts-de-France. It is part of the European Metropolis of Lille. The most well-known brewery there is undoubtedly Pelican, which was later known as Pelforth, but I can’t tell if this that brewery or a different one. I think today it’s owned by Heineken, but I’m not even absolutely sure of that, either. I also don’t know who the artist is who created this poster.

I’ve been posting vintage European posters all last year and will continue to do so in 2020. This poster was created for the Grande Brasserie J. Laubenheimer & Fils, which was “The Brasserie Laubenheimer was founded in 1828 by the Alsacien brewer, Jean Laubenheimer, and produced beer for over one hundred years. By 1927, the family-owned brewery had grown into a large plant with electricity, automated bottling and renovated fermenting cellars and included a large brewery house and a malt house.
