Old illustrated invoice "Félix Potin" - Paris - 1896

Former invoice from Félix Potin, dated March 2, 1896, featuring a remarkable illustrated letterhead under the heading "Food Products - Wines, Spirits & Liqueurs." The composition brings together the stores on Boulevard Sébastopol and Boulevard Malesherbes, the factory and warehouse in Pantin, and the factory in La Villette, all set amidst foliage and cartouches. The details of the facades, the carriages, and the industrial facilities make this commercial document particularly interesting. Hand-completed, the invoice retains its purple "Paid" stamp. A very decorative antique paper, perfect for framing to highlight its graphics and illustrations.
