ADVERTISING campaigns are usually
successful when operated by organiza
tions that realize the value of jU the factors,
viz., investigation, plans, selling copy, art
and printing.
Printing is quite as vital a factor in
success as any of the others a good cam
paign can be ruined by poor expression and
the Printing Department of an advertising
agency is the department of expression.
,y. !. -.
We regard our printing department as of
cardinal service to our clients.
Our printing department assures an im
plicit and faithful expression of advertising
ideas, in advertisements, in campaign broad
sides, in books, lithographed posters, window
displays, car and store cards, halftone plates,
type composition, etc., the entire gamut of
advertising literature and mechanical ar
tistry. Donovan-Armstrong campaigns have
made a notable record for successful mer
chandising. Perhaps more than any other
agency Donovan-Armstrong printing has
been commented on by printing journals for
its magnificence of "finish," for its super
lative style and elegance. This would serve
to show the importance of the printing
function in advertising.
;.-. ;. v. i.
Advertising today has advanced with
the general "uplift" of the country. The war
broadened our viewpoint ... it quickened
our appreciation of more delicate and truth
ful illustration. The effect of the European
occupation is apparent on a big section of
our population in its love of the artistic.
Art in advertising is therefore mor.c
exacting. The play of an idea on the face
subtle shades of meaning ; these are essential.
Great artists' work never before was in
such demand and never before so costly.
' To crystallize these delicate "nuances"
of thought, so that they appear properly in
the great publications for which they arc
required, demands knowledge of plate mak
ing and printing of the highest order,
.y. v . h-
A further value of the Printing Depart
ment lies in securing right prices and deliv
ery on big jobs ... a run of several million
booklets ... a monthly circulation of a big
house organ ... a smashing window dis
play ... a handsome store sign, etc., etc.
The paper markets today never before
were so chaotic . . . printing prices never
before were subject to such violent fluctua
tion. There are many good, reliable printers
whose quotations and product are as good
as gold ...
With us, every last detail of a "job" is
known in advance every specification
clearly understood in advance delivery is
assured at a specified time and the price rep
resents actual value.. We assure certainty
and definiteness in a field that to most adver
tisers is vague and technical.
H- H- .?.
When we are selected as advertising
counsel by a manufacturer we assume, re
sponsibility for maximum service in every
direction affected by our client's merchan
dising activities
Printing, engraving and lithographing
are vitally important . . . they repre
sent only a part of the immense service we
are able to give.
That our service is beyond the ordinary!
we have but to point to the tremendous suc
cesses of our clients' campaigns and to the
unusual record of association we have with
them.
We have an average of seven years and
six months with our present clients.
In 1919 our business showed a gain of
1,50 per cent over that of 1918. Ninety-six
per cent of our total business in 1919 was
from accounts that we had served for more
than one year up to twenty-five years.
That we realize the vital nature of each
and all the functions of advertising should be
impressive to the man who realizes in his
own business the various functions that con
tribute to his success.
If you arc that man, we would appre
ciate an opportunity to tell you in greater de
tail features of our service that have complete
attention.
If you will write us when an interview
would be convenient, we will appreciate it
... an interview will involve no obligation.
