 Show poster art and the American entertainment industry September 7, 2001
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Jim Sherraden, Elek Horvath and Paul Kingsbury's Hatch Show Print traces the evolution of show posters for entertainers, examining links between show poster art and the American entertainment industry from the early 1800s to modern times. Nashville's long-time Hatch Show Print is the focus of this examination, which blends a survey of popular culture with an examination of letterpress and print evolution. Exceptional.
 A good reference for designers... July 19, 2001

but it doesn't even come close to comparing with the real thing. You need to see the real paint color and the overprinting to truly understand the poster art form. Still, it's a good cheater's manual for design.
 A gem. May 2, 2001

This is a beautiful book. It's a must-own if you are interested in advertising, graphic design, the history of country music, or all of the above (Yankee graphic designers take note: you should see the book even if you dislike country music).
