Civil War Posters

June 15th 2011 04:21
In the mid 1800s posters were about the only option for mass media advertising appealing to the masses.
It's interesting to see the marketing techniques used back then and compare them to modern times.
These posters would be far too wordy and less colorful and catchy than contemporary versions.
