Number of pages:
8
ABSTRACT:
An 8 page discussion of the evolution in military recruitment techniques which can be observed from the Civil War to the present. Concentrating on recruitment posters, the author contends recruiting techniques evolved from the simplistic to the complex both in terms of the image rendition and in terms of the suggestion the images were intended to make to the American psyche. This paper emphasizes that the evolution in recruiting posters from simple to complex graphics, from informative to stunning, occurred both in relation to changing in printing and other technologies and in relation to cultural changes themselves. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
