(A designer who made this one in 1963).

So long framed posters…

Poster created by #JeanJacquelin

Many of the gags in Jour de fête depend on the use of frame-lines and foreground objects to obscure the comic event — not so as to punch home the gag, but to hide and purify it, so to speak, to force the spectator to intuit and sometimes invent the joke for himself.
