GDS 110

I found this ad in Communication Arts. I thought it was interesting because it relates to the reading this week regarding how to create emphasis. This design breaks a lot of the rules but because it does so on purpose and for effect, the "don't's" become a deliberate part of the design. Given the Graphic Design history I've been reading about, I could see how the designers were going for a Victorian lithograph style. That's about all I got. I'm getting the cold everyone else has had so I'm keeping it short and sweet tonight.
