2000 Early Advertising Cuts (Dover Pictorial Archive Series)

Rating:
Summary: Great Clips for Art
Review: The 2,000 cuts offered here are a fine example of the craftsmanship and quality that imbued early advertising with its classic and lasting appeal. Editor Leslie Cabarga has choosen a stunning variety of images that are free to reproduce, making this book ideal for graphic designers and advertising departments. The cuts themselves offer a wide range of themes, from recreation to business and back again, and are appealing for both their technical production and kitsch value. The book's only failing is it's use of space: some of the images are packed too densely, making their use a bit tricky. Overall, though, a wonderful book.
