Without these no progressive industry can hope to continue. Whereas in the past utility only was demanded of the industries, today the American public demands beauty combined with utility. With this development has come the art of advertising, the announcing of the products of industry in an interesting, appealing form. This has developed into an immense and profitable industry, calling into use the artist and designer and the introduction of the subject in our school curriculums. There has also developed a strong demand for practical knowledge of industrial and advertising Art subjects in up-to-date industries of today. The following pages present the study of those principles based upon years of active experience by the authors. Urgent requests from students, teachers and professional workers have given an impetus to the second edition of this book. A LIST OF PLATES Plate 1. How to Begin a Drawing ..... 12 Plate 2.
