Description
A vintage advertisement proclaims the sale of the "Sunday Journal" for 3 cents, featuring 32 pages of content. A character, evocative of the late 19th to early 20th century, triumphantly plays a trumpet-like instrument with notes visually transforming into a plant, suggesting growth or flourishing perhaps linked to reading the publication. Below, smaller figures mimic the central character's pose while the text encourages readers that they won't be happy until they read the journal, promoting the January 19th, 1896 issue and a free music sheet offered with it.
