Advertising Sign History 

Commercial ads have been found in ancient Arabia. The Egyptians used papyrus to make sales ads and wall posters,while lost and found ads on papyrus was common in ancient Rome and Greece. Wall and rock painting was another method of early advertising, which is still seen in parts of Asia, Africa and South America. As the printed page began in the 15th and 16th century, ads started to include handbills. Ads began to appear in newspapers in England during the 17th century. These early ads were used commonly to advertise books, newspapers and medicines. Lots more to come, check back soon Roger
