Cherry Maurice Chevalier

Maurice Chevalier, French superstar of theatre, film, and stage, is also the star of this charming 1930s poster. The cherry flavored extra-dry brandy is dwarfed by Chevalier's charm and style. He sports his signature tilted forward hat and blue tuxedo. He holds the liqueur in one hand, a basket of tumbling cherries in the other. It is a charming image, wonderful for the entertaining areas of the home.

Roger de Valerio (1886-1951) is the artist of this poster. De Valerio worked predominantly in Paris, for both magazines such as Le Rire as well as the music publisher, Salabert. During his tenure at Salabert, de Valerio created over 2000 covers for sheet music. He also created many wonderful advertising posters, and it is no surprise he was given the commission for this poster with its combination of product and nod to music.
