Through Life's Traffic, Grab the Graphic
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Vibrant Advertisement from the Roaring Twenties This advertisement invites viewers to "Grab the Graphic" amidst the bustling traffic of a lively urban scene. Published in The Bystander, a sister paper of The Graphic, in 1927, this striking advertisement showcases the allure of the weekly illustrated magazine, which was first founded by William Luson Thomas in 1869. The advertisement transports us back in time to the Roaring Twenties, an era of rapid technological advancements and cultural evolution. The graphic design, reminiscent of the Art Deco style, is a visual feast for the eyes, with bold lines, vibrant colors, and intricate patterns that reflect the excitement and energy of the period. At the heart of the advertisement is a busy street scene filled with various modes of transportation, including buses and trams, all adorned with advertisements for The Graphic. The tagline, "Through Life's Traffic, Grab the Graphic," emphasizes the accessibility and ubiquity of the publication, making it a must-have for those on the go. By the following year, both The Graphic and The Bystander had been bought by the Illustrated London News, becoming part of the prestigious "Great Eight" group of British illustrated newspapers and magazines. This advertisement, with its dynamic design and compelling message, effectively encapsulates the spirit of innovation and the allure of the illustrated press during the 1920s. This advertisement is an excellent example of the rich visual history of media and advertising in the early 20th century. It invites us to step back in time and appreciate the artistry and creativity that went into promoting publications during this era.
