Vintage 1982 Grand Marnier Liqueur Print Advertisement — Original 1980s Cognac Liqueur Ad
Approximately 8.5 x 11 inches.
This vintage 1982 Grand Marnier Liqueur magazine advertisement captures the French orange cognac liqueur at its most imaginative — a couple soaring over a stylized New York City skyline in a hot-air balloon shaped like an enormous orange, the iconic round-bottomed bottle towering over Art Deco skyscrapers below. The original print ad's painterly illustration and tagline 'Up is always a step in the right direction' perfectly embody the aspirational glamour of early 1980s luxury spirits marketing. A collectible ad for lovers of French liqueurs, vintage illustration, and the golden era of sophisticated cocktail culture.
