In the 1970s, Brün designed a few posters for Perrier. Shifting away from his traditional style, these
later images were designed in a much freer way, using collage techniques or large strokes of color.

Leupin was one of the most prolific Swiss poster artists in the post-war years. His work, largely based
around visual gags, is often compared to that of Raymond Savignac, although, in fact, he was much
more versatile in his style than his French counterpart. Leupin designed a small handful of posters for
Coca-Cola in the 1950s, several of which had the theme of “pause,” in which the soda was represented
as the drink of choice when people were on breaks. This is the French version. Leupin / Richter 63.
