1787 Advertising Colony Newspaper November Philadelphia Printmaker Mcculloch
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "COLONIAL PRINTER, 1787" takes us back in time to the bustling city of Philadelphia during the American colonial era. The advertisement for John McCulloch, a prominent printer in the city, is prominently displayed in this image. The photograph showcases an authentic piece of history - a page from the Freemans Journal dated 28 November 1787. This newspaper was widely read by North Americans at that time and played a crucial role in disseminating information to the public. The attention to detail is remarkable as we can clearly see every letter and word on the advertisement. It serves as a testament to McCulloch's skill as a printmaker and his dedication to his craft. This image offers us a glimpse into how advertising was done during this period. It reminds us of simpler times when newspapers were one of the primary sources of news and communication. As we admire this photo print, it transports us back over two centuries ago, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry involved in printing techniques at that time and gain insight into life during America's colonial past.
