Advertorial Bellboy Lighting Lights Match Matchbox Matches Rene Shadow Smoker Smokes Striking Vincent Bell Boy
EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card, designed by the renowned French artist Rene Vincent in 1934, showcases a young bellboy in the midst of lighting up a Gitanes cigarette. The bellboy, dressed in his crisp uniform and donning a red cap, casts a warm, inviting shadow on the wall behind him. With a striking match in one hand and a Gitanes matchbox in the other, he pauses for a moment in his busy day to indulge in the simple pleasure of smoking a cigarette. The intricate details of the illustration, from the folds of the bellboy's uniform to the delicate lines of the smoke curling up from the cigarette, reveal Vincent's exceptional artistic skill. The soft, muted colors of the card add to its vintage charm, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. This charming trade card is a testament to the enduring appeal of Rene Vincent's work and the nostalgic allure of a young bellboy taking a moment to enjoy a Gitanes cigarette.
