Graphic posters

1940
In 1940, the posters were mainly for the war. They are bright colours, mostly containing black, red, white and yellow. All of them look hand drawn and include large text.



1950
The 1950's posters are mostly for film/food/condements/body stuff.
They include more colours and better illustrations that from the 1940's. The typography is still big and bold as they are trying to sell.



1960
The 1960 posters are very much peace and music designs.
They include much brighter colours and 'bubble' type fonts.
This is my favourite era for posters as i am into peace protests and i love the bright use of colours, i think they are the most eye-catching.
