n the early 1900s, International
Harvester produced a series of Spanish-language posters
exclusively for the South American market. These posters
feature a distinct graphic style: illustrations of
equipment appear within decorative frames on backgrounds
of a solid, usually primary color. The origins of this
style are unknown, but they may have been related to
cost. A simplified color scheme required fewer
lithographic plates, which made printing less expensive.
