Description
George LEONNEC designed his last poster, for “Naja” cigarettes in 1939. Naja is Egyptian for cobra. The print was produced by Ozone et Co Caen - Paris which denotes that it is from the 1960s.
The print has the artist monogram ‘LG1939’.
SEITA stands for Société d’exploitation industrielle des tabacs et allumettes which was the French state owned tobacco company which also sold Gauloises and Gitanes both created in 1910.
Georges LEONNEC (French 1881 - 1940)
Georges Paul Albert LEONNEC, is a French illustrator known in particular for his funny illustrations in "Le Sourire" or "La Vie parisienne". The son of cartoonist Paul LEONNEC and brother of writer-director Félix LEONNEC and Jannik LEONNEC, artist. From the age of 12-13, he began to work with his father on caricatures for Parisian newspapers. Expelled from the Lycée de Brest because of a caricature of a teacher, he continued his studies in Paris.
In 1901 his first “professional” drawings were published in the review "Jean qui rit". In 1902 he published in "La Vie pour rire" and designed various works for periodicals such as "Le Rire", "Le Sourire" and "L'Assiette aueurre" as well as advertisements for the Byrrh firm, the Dufayel department stores and those "À l'Innovation" by Brussels. From 1900 to 1915 George LEONNEC led a life of "artist" which he shared with Élisa P. L’HOUEREUX, his first wife, from whom he was divorced in 1915.
During the war he boosted the morale of the troops with his frivolous and humorous drawings which depict an archetype of naughty Parisian who appears on the cover of different popular magazines.
After the war he began to work as an illustrator for "La Vie parisienne”. At the same time, he produced advertisements for companies such as Renault and Daimler. In 1916, he met Hortense LE RETIF, whom he married in 1923. She became the model for "La Parisienne". He produced sets for the Folies Bergère and the Casino de Paris.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?

In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
