Abstract

Some of the finest towns in the country have their central areas liberally spattered with advertising hoardings; almost every newspaper and maga-zine depends on advertisements to keep it alive; half the country’s television viewing is paid for by advertisers; many cinemas have commercial films between the entertainment ones; our letterboxes are frequently stuffed with colourful leaflets and free samples; and most of the buses and trains keep their fares down by carrying advertisement panels.
