"From Smoke Balls to Whisky: A Journey Through Time in Advertising" Step into the world of advertising with a glimpse at some iconic and intriguing advertisements throughout history. First, we have the Carbolic Smoke Ball, a peculiar invention that promised to cure ailments. This quirky advertisement captures the imagination of those seeking unconventional remedies. Next, let's travel back to 1939 with a vibrant Southern Railway poster showcasing Ramsgate. The colorful lithograph entices viewers to explore this coastal destination, evoking feelings of wanderlust and adventure. Moving on, we encounter Théophile Steinlen's famous Tournée du Chat Noir poster. This captivating artwork promotes an entertainment establishment and has become an enduring symbol of Parisian nightlife. In contrast, an 1885 advertisement for the Rover Safety Bicycle highlights technological advancements in transportation. It invites readers to embrace this new mode of travel and experience freedom on two wheels. Switching gears again, we stumble upon an ad for tango lessons—an invitation to indulge in passion and rhythm through dance. The allure of learning this sensual art form is palpable within its elegant design. Continuing our exploration, we witness a woman engrossed in examining an invitation for Salon des Cent—an exclusive gathering celebrating artistry and creativity. This advertisement hints at sophistication and cultural refinement. The Seasalter & Ham Oyster Fishery Company tempts us next with their lithographic depiction promoting Whitstable Native Oysters from Kent—a delicacy that promises indulgence by the sea. Shifting focus once more, Dewars Scotch whisky takes center stage as "The Spirit of Empire. " This drawing exudes elegance while inviting consumers to savor the rich flavors associated with worldly success. Lifebuoy soap enters the scene as a hero fighting dirt and disease—a colorful lithograph emphasizing cleanliness as essential for good health. Its message resonates even today—cleanliness is paramount. Thos. Brett Cleveland showcases Diebold Safe & Lock Company's reliability, assuring customers of their security needs.
