01
Artifact Overview
During her time at Detroit's Roupp Art Studios in the late 1950s, artist Jacqueline Bergey Ward created posters advertising automobile maintenance and repair services -- an important source of revenue for car dealerships. Maintenance needs changed with the seasons, and Ward's posters did too. At Christmastime, special ads played on holiday themes or simply offered good wishes to customers.
