Apéritif Mugnier. 1890.
The pert, sweet-faced waitress alone is enough to convince us of the merits of this beverage. The client was a company started in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier, who prepared a potion from a wine base flavored with blackberries and cherries. This is a rare, two-sheet version of the design printed seven years prior to the more commonly seen version of the poster that advertises the beverage as Quinquina Mugnier.
