 Historical Note

Broadsides were a common form of printed material in Europe and America from the 16th to 19th centuries. In Latin America, José Guadalupe Posada was one of the most well known makers of broadsides that often satirized political figures during the Mexican Revolution.

Broadsides were often used to spread news and announcements, political causes and movements, address popular culture, and serve as advertisements. They were inexpensive to produce and could reach every social class.
