NEW YORK — Long before the eras of television and digital media, posters were the preferred medium for advertising. The arrival of stone lithography around 1880 allowed for colorful advertising posters to be produced fast and in mass quantities. Vintage posters in virtually every genre are sought-after, but a perennial favorite is those that tout food and drink.
