Chocolat Poulain Taste And Compare
Original antique food advertising poster for Chocolat Poulain Goutez et Comparez / Taste and Compare featuring an illustration of a young boy in white clothing wearing a hat with bows on his shoes mischievously sticking his tongue out and winking to the viewer as he holds a bar of chocolate next to the diagonal stylised title text, a wooden crate with boxes of chocolate next to him in front of a leafy green plant background. Artwork by the French painter and poster artist Firmin Bouisset (1859-1925). Founded in 1848 by the French chocolatier Victor-Auguste Poulain (1825-1918), Chocolat Poulain is now owned by Eurazeo (since 2017) and is one of the country's oldest chocolate brands. Printed by Affiches Camis, Paris. Large size. Poor condition, restored tears, several restored paper losses on edges, restored creasing, staining, trimmed margins, backed on linen.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All our antique and vintage posters, books, maps and prints listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Practically all of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves carving each colour of the image onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, we believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £25 for orders placed via our website.
