Authentic vintage BYRRH advertisement from the old magazine "l'Illustration" No 4885 dated October 17, 1936. 

The print is presented in a glazed gold frame.

A man with a moustache is talking to a customer:

"Don't be afraid! The bottle has changed but it still contains our dear old BYRRH. The one and only!"

Simon Violet est à l’origine d’un apéritif commercialisé sous le nom de « Vin tonique et hygiénique au quinquina », une merveilleuse formule alliant du mistelle de raisin aromatisé aux  écorces de quinquina, un arbuste médical.

In a context where medical wines based on cinchona were in full expansion, the brand was a victim of its own success, the Pallade and Simon Violet brothers were sued by the Order of Pharmacists of Montpellier, and were forced to change the name of the brand.

De là, est né le sigle BYRRH le 10 février 1873 qui a toujours suscité de la curiosité et de l’imagination !

With its beautiful retro graphics, this poster will bring a decorative touch to your home. It would also look great in a traditional bar, café or restaurant.

It will also make an original gift for cocktails lovers but also antique collectors.
