Andy Warhol created the Chanel No5 poster circa 1985 as part of his ADS series of prints. Chanel having the rights to use the image waited until 1997 to make the posters available to the general public and  for advertising. The images were used in a campaign from June 1997. Postcards were given out at parfumeries in France using the Warhol image on one side and offering the perfume on the other. The text said that a limited edition poster celebrating Warhol and Chanel would be available for a limited time at parfumeries and department stores such as Galeries Lafayette, Nouvelle Galeries etc as a gift only with the purchase of Chanel No5 and that is where the 22 x 29 edition comes from.

This poster is from the 1997 promotion and not a modern reproduction.
