Reviews
Advertising is as American as apple pie, dating back to the 17th century and the arrival of the first printing presses in the American colonies, as Applegate (advertising and mass communications, Middle Tennessee State Univ.) recounts in this book. He notes that handbills, newspapers, and Benjamin Franklin's own Pennsylvania Gazette gave advertisers a means to reach potential customers. The emergence of advertising agents in the 1800s made advertising more effective, helping businesses to write and format ads. Applegate describes products and stores that soon became household names--the power brands of their day. One of the first, Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, became the "surest remedy for the painful ills and disorders suffered by women everywhere." John Wanamaker used advertising to turn his Philadelphia men's clothing store into the largest department store of its kind in 1876, advertising "whole suits for three dollars." As advertising grew, so did the nation's manufacturers and merchandisers, including soap maker Procter & Gamble, known for its "soap that floats." By the 1900s, advertisers agreed that "sex sells." In the final chapter, Applegate traces the history of how advertising became a subject taught in US colleges and universities. Summing Up: Recommended.
