Original German advertising poster for Crüwell Tabak, c. 1930s. The design shows a nighttime view of the Taj Mahal, linking the tobacco brand with imagery of the East. The text reads Gebr. Crüwell Spezialfabrik für Rauchtabak Gegr. 1717 Bielefeld (“Crüwell Brothers, Special Factory for Smoking Tobacco, Established 1717, Bielefeld”).
Crüwell was a long-established German tobacco manufacturer with origins in the 18th century. By the early 20th century the company issued a number of decorative posters and point-of-purchase displays to promote its pipe tobacco products. This example was printed on heavy board for shop display rather than wall posting, and is smaller in scale than typical lithographic advertising posters.
Original French advertising poster for Plasson bicycles designed by Manuel Robbe. The composition shows a confident female cyclist mounting her bicycle while elegantly dressed women remain in the background. The image captures the growing enthusiasm for cycling in the late nineteenth century, a period when the bicycle became a symbol of modern life and personal freedom. Robbe’s design is notable for its striking simplicity and dramatic use of color, particularly the vivid red sky that dominates the scene.
Manuel Robbe (1872–1936) was a French painter and printmaker trained at the Académie Julian in Paris. He became known primarily for his color prints and aquatints, though he also produced a small number of advertising posters during the poster boom of the 1890s. His work is associated with the Art Nouveau period and is appreciated for its refined composition and controlled color palette. The posters he created for the Plasson bicycle company are among his most recognizable advertising works.
