Historical notes and a number of objects complement the presentation, helping to put the festivals and industries of the time into context.

It is the first time that these fragile, large-format posters, collected over the last twenty-five years and sometimes surviving only in very rare or even unique copies, have been shown as a whole at the Château.

A book has been published about the exhibition.
