How New York Bills Postings Transform Urban Ads
In New York the bill posting trade concentrates among three firms led by Harry Munson. A 28 by 42 inch poster, eight sheets on boards, costs advertisers 28 cents per sheet weekly, or about 28 cents. Contractors employ 8 wagons with ladders and 12 routes daily, with wages $2 a day and hours 8 to 6. Rentals for space vary widely from $9 to $100,000, with prime spots at Broadway and Sixth Street, Forty second and Broadway, and Broadway and Bleeker commanding top rates. Posters are designed from initial sketches through printing, with colors layered for varied shades, and are posted from the outside in to suit readers.
