In Kyle Schlesinger’s essay, A Look At Some Contemporary Poetry Broadsides, he describes a broadside as “a form of street literature, a public work of art designed to be read outdoors, rather than in the library. Unlike the book, which can be perceived as a private, usually closed, one-on-one reading experience, the broadside is public, open (literally impossible to ‘close’), form of art that encourages a communal reading experience” He also says that broadsides are a single sheet printed on one side only. After reading his essay, the broadside that caught my eye from the MASC Collection was a Y.M.C.A broadside. This broadside has strong imagery that is an illustration of what the type on the paper says. There is not a lot of text on this broadside but some text is included. This broadside follows the statement Schlesinger’s statement about integrating images. Schlesinger says, “overlaps and intersections between text and image are often beautiful when examined in detail as they show us new things about letterforms as images and images as letterforms.” The broadside I chose is an example of this statement because the word Y.M.C.A is behind a woman standing with books, and then more text is to the side of her. Also, the woman is a description of the text. The broadside uses display type, which Schlesinger describes as larger than 36 points, through the Y.M.C.A that is shown behind the woman. Although the text on the sides of the broadside are smaller than Y.M.C.A, they are still very large, but that could partly be because the broadside is very large.
