August 2015 NA RR - Katabexine, 1899

Circa 1899 art by Leonetto Cappiello. Katabexine, an effervescent tablet, was recommended for all types of cough as well as for bronchitis and asthma. The elegant drawing, with bright primary colors contrasted against a black background, contains elements of artist Cappiello's style that insured excellent visibility of his posters, even from a long distance, making them especially effective when mounted on exterior walls.

Sally found this great 1946 Volkswagen Beetle postcard in a thrift store and immediately thought of me. I'm so happy she did!!   The 1949 VW Bug, as seen on the postcard, helped spark an invasion of imported economy sedans that changed forever the American automobile industry.
