France: Poster advertisement for Cafe Collas (Collas Coffee), 'Pearls from the Indes, the Best of all Coffees', anonymous, c. 1927

This orientalist poster was designed in 1927 for the Collas coffee house. Rene Honore Collas founded the company, producing some of the best coffee in France. Collas opened in India in the mid 1920s, leading to this claim for Cafe Collas as 'la perle des indes', the pearl of India.
