Welcome to the LPC Valentine’s Day treat – a selection of the most romantic vintage cards.
San Marco who created these cards was the Italian artist also responsible for iconic advertisements for Martini vermouth in the 1930 to 50s. Wine company Martini & Rossi was founded by businessman Alessandro Martini, winemaker Lugio Rossi and accountant Teofilo Sola in mid-19th century in Turin, Italy. The company is one of the first brands to produce Vermouth and later became famous for the cocktail named Martini, a mixed alcoholic drink its founder invented. A Martini is prepared by mixing gin or vodka and vermouth together and garnished by an olive or a lemon twist. Over the years, Martini has become one of the best-known cocktails. Perhaps a suitable toast today?
