P.T Barnum's Greatest Show on Earth and the Great London Circus, Sanger's Royal British Menagerie and the Great International 10 Allied Shows herald for June 16, 1881.
This artwork is a herald used to promote P.T Barnum’s circus in London in 1881. This herald was designed in order to fit all the details about the show on it. It featured all the different performers, acts, and animals that would be featured in the show. It uses large, bold headers to catch the attention of the viewers. It utilizes dramatized pictures as a visual aid to provide context to the many written words. The visual aids add excitement to what would be a bland herald.
