What is original fifties
clipart?
Most communities in the fifties had small town print shops that doubled as printers of local news and advertising papers. These
printers could not afford graphic artists so they used stock clipart supplied by large companies who distributed common graphics for use in advertising sections of the papers. They were provided for the printer in lots of
categories to meet any advertiser’s needs. Hundreds more of these advertising “cuts” will soon be added. Make sure you bookmark this site for your future retro clipart source.
