A toast to Barcelona’s nightlife, past and present.
Over the last few years, Gerard Cecchini and friends have collected vintage bar mats from bars, cafés, and discotecas across Barcelona, many of which have long since disappeared. Their distinctive logos, typography, and colors capture a time when every neighborhood had its own identity, and every coaster told a story.
Posavasos gathers 132 of these printed gems into one volume, each book including an original bar mat from the collection. Printed in one-color risograph on 100% recycled paper, this lovingly assembled archive celebrates the graphic spirit, humor, and warmth of Catalan bar culture.
