OUGD401 - Practical Idea

For my practical I would like to create a poster series that shows how women were portrayed within advertising from each decade, starting in the 1950s. What sparked this idea was the quote "If I were to become acquainted with american drinking habits merely through advertising, I would presume that whiskey and gin were only consumed by men." I thought that I could create a bold typographical piece using this quote, and finding similar quotes from other decades to describe women's portrayal at the time. I need to do lots of research into this, but I feel it's a strong idea for me to pursue.
