Handbills and
advertising posters have long been used to showcase
commercial products, although both the medium and the
message have changed over time. In the following
activities, students will have the opportunity to look
carefully at the selected posters in the
McCormick-International Harvester Collection as a basis
for analyzing, comparing, and contrasting the
advertising of the past and that of the present.
- Teaching Activities
These four activities present
opportunities (to be modified to meet the needs
of your students) that allow students to grapple
with the ideas presented in "Art of the
Draw"
- Thematic
Bibliography
Curators have compiled a thematic
bibliography on the history of: McCormick and
International Harvester Companies, Agricultural
Equipment, Cyrus Hall McCormick and Family,
Tractors, Advertising, Lithography, and
Posters.
