Billboard Advertising Quotes

Back in the days when American billboard advertising was in flower [said Hemingway], there were two slogans that I always rated above all others: the old Cremo Cigar ad that proclaimed, Spit Is a Horrid Word-but Worse on the end of Your Cigar, and Drink Schlitz in Brown Bottles and Avoid that Skunk Taste. You don’t get creative writing like that any more Picture Quote #1

One night in the early sixties I passed something on the Long Island Expressway just before the Queens tunnel that I must have seen for years. The billboard advertising cigars, Dutch Masters. I realized it was sort of perfect. It’s weird isn’t it? You’re looking at Rembrandt - in neon! It was too much, it was irresistible Picture Quote #1

I’ve come up through art school, through painting, through graphic design, through advertising, through TV commercials and music video. I’ve designed books, built billboards, matchbooks, corporate identities. I continuously paint, I’ve done conceptual art pictures Picture Quote #1

Whom one is speaking to - or which aspect of their character - fundamentally determines the meaning and consequences of an exhortation. ‘Indulge Your Desires’ comes across very differently on a billboard advertising SUVs than it does spray-painted across the broken windows of an SUV dealer. It follows that what you say is not nearly as important as how and when you say it Picture Quote #1

I started billboard painting in Minneapolis, and I went to General Outdoor Advertising, and I said, ‘I could do that.’ They said, ‘Oh yeah... we can always use a good man around here.’ Picture Quote #1
