  The great poster makers of the early twentieth century might never have imagined a time when their grand posters would and could be posted in the mail.In their day,the true poster was wall art.In more recent times,the thousands of posters sent out annually by the American Institute of Graphic Arts alone are ample evidence that posters are no longer restricted tohoardings,kiosks,orplacards.For three decades,designers have been creating unique poster-like missives,usually calls for entry to the AIGA’s national design competitions or announcements of chapter events. Every conceivable graphic method一classical, Modern, post-Modern, payody, pastiche, and all manner of quirky experiments 一has been used to convey the AIGA’s message and mission. During the past ten years, some of these images have become icons of contemporary design. So those who perennially lament the death of the American poster must not be on any of the AIGA’s mailing lists. They have missed a wellspring of original work.
