do you think a western tag is warranted? i dunno if i would even tag this 'western' even if we had such a tag.....what do you think? and let's have our keeper of the tags noluck_boston weigh in too.....
I think the contents are well-known to be legit (or else the myth is so established that it's difficult to suss out if it's fake), but honestly the image itself looks modern to me. The text is a very modern typeface, reminds me of something developed in the early 20th century with all those geometric influences in design, plus the kerning and so on doesn't resemble typical 19th C. ads that we see at all.
The text is probably Futura of all things. I think that is from the 30s. The other typefaces look modern and the paper texture looks fake. Totally fake.

the story of a pretty boy (Leif Garrett) and his horse.
