An Original Vintage Linenbacked French Magazine Cover (measures 8 3/4" x 11 3/4") (Learn More) Le Rire was a successful French humor magazine published from October 1894 until its final issue in April 1971. Founded in Paris during the Belle Epoque by Felix Juven, Le Rire appeared as typical Parisians began to achieve more education, income and leisure time. The satirical journal was filled with excellent drawings by prominent artists, and it featured full-page chromotypographs on both covers and in the centerfold (many of these pieces are now highly desirable collectibles). Illustrations were contributed by artists such as Theophile Steinlen, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Georges Goursat, and many more. Important Added Info: Note that the magazine cover has an artist's signature on it, but we cannot make it out in the slightest. If anyone knows the name of this artist, please e-mail us and we will post it here. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The magazine cover was removed from the magazine. It had a few scuffs around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the magazine cover "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the ad).
