Year: Undated (c.1950s)

Format: Buvard

Illustrator: Charles Desruol

Client: Boldolaxine

Details: This buvard advertises Boldolaxine, a laxative product used to treat constipation. It is undated but looks c.1950s.

The artwork is signed C. Desruol - I believe this to be Charles Desruol, a poster artist during the 1950s. I have also found examples of designs he created to advertise other pharmaceutical products.
