The central focus of this ad is undoubtedly the text boldly proclaiming "AD: RAT POISON". This straightforward message leaves no room for interpretation - it's clear that this product aims to eliminate rats effectively. The use of large, capitalized letters adds to the urgency and emphasizes the potency of this poison. Accompanied by intricate details and vibrant colors, this artwork stands as a testament to both artistic skill and marketing ingenuity. It serves as a reminder of how companies utilized visual storytelling even in their advertisements back then.
