ADS MATTER is an Ad Council exhibit which documents the advertising industry's long standing commitment to better America by producing compelling public service campaigns. Smokey Bear and McGruff the Crime Dog are among the icons depicted in images from a dozen memorable ads. The exhibit will be accompanied by a number of programs related to advertising and the media.
A companion exhibit which looks at the male image in advertising from 1900 to date using material from the collections of the Science, Industry and Business Library is also on view.
