Le Fakyr
ARTIST : Michel Liebeaux (MICH) (French 1881-1923)

This is an advertisement for the le Fakyr drink ? its powder is used in the making of tonic wines such as the Taillan ?grand vin du quinquina? . quinquina was a name used collectively for bitters having quinine as one of their main ingredients.
Jack Rennert ? the undisputed king of American poster knowledge ? calls Liebeaux (who called himself Mich) a ?master humorist?. Mich?s main clients were the bicycle and auto industries. at the beginning of the twentieth century, and in the 1912 Salon des humorists, he exhibited fifty sporting designs. His drawings also filled the pages of la Vie Parisienne, le rire, and l?echo de Paris.
