The advertising posters for Lucky
Strike cigarettes reflect the popular Montreux
posters from 1983. According to the imprint,
they were commissioned by Lucky Strike
Switzerland, arranged by the art consultant
Pierre Keller, who at the time taught at the
Gymnase de Bugnon in Lausanne and was
later director of the art college there. Haring
knew him since his work on the Montreux
posters. He drew the designs in June at the
high school in Lausanne.
