Theatrical Ads from a Hundred Years Ago
Props: "I’ve been finding a lot of great advertisements for theatrical propertycompanies and other related businesses from The Julius Cahn-Gus Hill Theatrical Guide and Moving Picture Directory. These ads appeared between 1898 and 1913. It’s a fascinating snapshot of the theatrical business scene in New York City from a century ago. I also love the style of the ads themselves, with their odd mix of formality and flair."
