This is an original 1936 black and white print ad for The Merchandise Mart from the Great Central Market located in Chicago. This ad has an interesting composition. The men and women in hats and carrying briefcases are marching from the bottom of the ad up to the department store at the top. They draw your eye into the piece and push it up show you everything you need to see.
