This poster advertised the undergraduate BA Honours in Product Design course offered at The Glasgow School of Art. The back of the poster answers a number of questions potential applicants might have had, including: Why Glasgow? Why Glasgow School of Art? What are the aims of the course? Will it appeal to me? What are the career prospects? How can I apply? What entrance qualifications do I need? The front of the poster states "There has never been a greater need for product design graduates to take up their crucial role in guiding the future prosperity of society, commerce and culture. The Department of Product Design at Glasgow School of Art is well placed to answer this exciting challenge, offering a rich programme which has earned an international reputation for producing versatile, creative designers."

This poster is for a Charles Rennie Mackintosh exhibition at the Glasgow School of Art, which ran from 1st July to 30 September 1988. The poster has a black and white design with orange font. It uses a geometric pattern which mimicks a Charles Rennie Mackintosh chair design.

This poster features white images of twenty chairs with grey text to advertise an exhibition held in Jugendstilsenteret, Ålesund, Norway, from 6th June to the 12th Oct 2003. The exhibition of twenty Mackintosh chairs from the Glasgow School of Art's collection formed part of the opening celebrations at Norway’s newest cultural attraction, the Jugenstilsenteret (Art Nouveau Centre), in Ålesund. Similar to Glasgow, this city is one of the founding partners of the EU-funded Réseau Art Nouveau Network. The School’s contribution was hoped to inspire further cultural and artistic ties between the two countries.
