Lox, Kina-Loxa, Coca, Kola, Georges Meunier, 1895

A cyclist's apéritif, with the race going by behind.

What

Georges Meunier's 1895 poster for Lox, a toni-apéritif of kina, coca and kola, printed by Chaix (Ateliers Chéret), with its depot at 87 avenue d'Italie, Paris.

Why

Lox put kina, coca and kola in one bottle and set it at the rest stop of a bicycle race.

Notice

Riders pass on the road in the background while the man in the striped jersey leans on his machine.

“An apéritif sold to the sporting crowd.”
