Ham on Wry: Sandwich Board Advertising

Under the Influence with Terry O'Reilly

20-04-2024 • 27 mins

Take a walk down any busy main street, and you’ll probably see one of the oldest forms of advertising:

The sandwich board.

They have been around for over 200 years.

Cities try and ban them.

Storekeepers love them.

They can make you smile.

They can make you angry.

They can attract a lot of attention.

They are the pop-up ads of the physical world.
