Halfsheet stone litho vintage
Cognac Quevedo advertising poster, created around the 1920s. The artwork features an anthropomorphic cat in a red suit and polka-dot tie winking at the viewer while punching through an internal advertisement for the Spanish brandy, playing on the English idiom "the cat that got the cream".
