Compost
and Composition
nternational Harvester
Company artists spared no effort even on the most
mundane pieces of equipment. The detailed rendering and
harmonious composition of this poster are impressive,
and the muted monochromatic background makes the manure
spreader almost leap off the page. Like many examples of
1920s commercial lithography, the design is attractive,
yet subordinate to the product being sold.
