Signboards

It is almost impossible to visualize a modern city without any signboards. The history of their creation is deeply rooted in the history of ancient Rome and Egypt where the owners of shops, pubs or studios placed wooden boards with commercial signage on their premises regarding the services provided in order to attract customers.

Later, in the Middle Ages, entrance signs enjoyed special popularity among advertisers who placed there mainly graphic images, most clearly designating its core activities. Thus, at the entrance to a dairy shop a customer could see a bas-relief of a goat or at the entrance to a bakery- a windmill. Russia didn't fall far behind Europe: there were signs with popular prints of comic character.

Until the 19th century there were no significant changes introduced in advertising production. Only 1890th- the beginning of 1900 heralded the dawn of advertising production development. That was the time when the capital was suffering from the "advertising chaos" and there was no less advertising than it is now. In order to become an expert in advertising it was obligatory to complete a 3-year course of studies. Starting his own business required from a former apprentice a successful passing of an examination to his Guild bosses.
