One of the most iconic posters in the beloved TV series Friends is undoubtedly the Aux Buttes Chaumont. Jouets et objets pour étrennes. Its popularity is easily understandable, and it has been prominently displayed throughout the show's run. Positioned above the television in the center of Monica Geller's living room, it has become a recognizable fixture in the Friends universe.

In Season 10, Episode 6, Phoebe famously referred to the poster as "the French poster from which nothing comes out." She argued that Monica should remove it to make space for some of her own artwork. Despite Phoebe's objections, the poster remains a beloved part of the Friends aesthetic.

The poster itself is an advertisement for the toy manufacturer Aux Buttes Chaumont, featuring the slogan "jouets et objets pour étrennes" that means something like "toys and objects for gifts." Created by Jules Chéret in 1885, the poster has become a timeless work of art that has captured the hearts of both Friends and Jules Chéret fans, not to mention fans of vintage advertising in general, all over the world.
