This vintage French poster from the mid-1970s features Joe Camel, the suave, anthropomorphic camel who became the face of Camel cigarettes. Created in 1974 by British artist Nicholas Price for a French advertising campaign, Joe Camel was designed to personify the brand's cool and adventurous image.

In this poster, Joe Camel is depicted in a stylish, contemporary setting, exuding confidence and sophistication. His relaxed demeanor and trendy attire were crafted to appeal to young adults, aligning with Camel's marketing strategy to attract a youthful demographic.
The French campaign's success with Joe Camel led to his introduction in the United States in 1988, where he became a central figure in Camel's advertising efforts. However, the character later faced criticism for allegedly appealing to underage audiences, leading to the eventual retirement of Joe Camel in 1997.
This poster represents a significant piece of advertising history, capturing the bold and edgy marketing approaches of the 1970s.

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
