Setting the tone for this post with a poster by Jules Chéret (1836-1932) advertising Job Cigarette Papers. You could say he was the Godfather of stone litho printing as a ‘pop’ phenomenon and just seeing his work demonstrates the influence it had on younger artists in Paris of the late 1800’s—with their Moulin Rouges, Folies Bergeres and Chat Noirs. Wink wink.
