EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and eye-catching print captures an advert for Frank Horsell & Co Ltd, dating back to 1909. The creator of this advertisement remains unknown but their artistic prowess is evident in the design. Taken from "The British Printer Vol. XXII" published by Raithby, Lawrence & Co. Ltd in London and Leicester, this piece showcases the creativity and innovation of early 20th-century advertising. The ad features a mesmerizing spectrum of colors, with shades of blue, green, yellow, and more blending together harmoniously. A central circle draws attention to the company's name - Frank Horsell & Co Ltd - while surrounding triangles create a prism-like effect that adds depth to the composition. Intricate lettering in lower case forms part of the design element as well. This advert highlights Frank Horsell & Co as an ink manufacturer or ink maker; however, it is important not to mention any commercial use associated with them. The overall result is a psychedelic and multicolored masterpiece that reflects both the profession of printing and the creative concept behind this particular advertisement. Preserved through time by The Print Collector archives, this image offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century Britain's advertising industry – where bold designs like these were used to catch people's attention amidst a sea of competing messages.
