Window Exhibit: Post No Bills!

The "Show Poster" was an essential form of advertising for public events throughout the United States during the 20th century. The overuse of posters led to city ordinances restricting their placement. Ordinances were emphasized by official signs reading "POST NO BILLS." The Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum recently acquired a collection of these posters which capture the essence of local entertainment during this period.

This exhibit is part of the Museum's “Windows on Collections” – A frequently changing exhibit of artifacts from the Museum’s growing collection. Depending upon any given theme, this exhibit ranges from the topical to the bizarre.
