Collection of 15 French colonial advertising cards for Banania. Text on reverse. 

NOTE: In 1909, while traveling in Nicaragua near Lake Managua, Pierre-François Lardet tasted a local drink made from banana flour, cocoa, and cereals. Lardet returned to Paris, perfected the formula with a pharmacist, and officially launched the brand in 1914. Due to its nutritional value, it was heavily promoted during World War I as an energy source. The product was first represented in 1912 by an Antillean woman ("La Guadeloupéenne"). At the outset of World War I, the popularity of the colonial troops at the time led to the replacement of the West Indian in 1915, by the now more familiar jolly Senegalese infantry man enjoying Banania. The slogan Y'a bon ("It's good") derives from the pidgin French supposedly used by these soldiers (it is, in fact, an invention). On May 19, 2011, the Movement Against Racism and for Friendship Between Peoples (MRAP) obtained before the Versailles Court of Appeal that Nutrimaine, the company that owns the Banania trademark, stop the sale of products bearing the slogan "Y'a bon." In its ruling, the court ruled that Nutrimaine must remove "in whatever form and by whatever means, the manufacturing and marketing of any illustration on which the famous phrase appears." She imposed a penalty of 20,000 euros per day for each violation found.

Set of 3 out of 10 Africa dioramas produced by Fromagerie Franco-Suisse in Belgium during the colonial period. Each diorama normally contains 10 inserts. What I have is the complete set for Belgian Civilization (10). I also have dioramas for Hunting (3) and Fauna (4), but missing some pieces. Without the diorama I have complete sets for Slavery (1) and Village, Dance and Sorcerers (2) Belgian civilization (10). I also have 11 pieces for the remaining 5 sets but with no diarama. The most interesting ones are the Slavery and Village life.  It is almost impossible to find the background dioramas.....in any condition. I have only seen individual diorama pieces but no diarama up to now (see BA107). M kh
