This poster advertised the publication of issue 11 of the Mackintosh School of Architecture magazine. The front of the poster features an illustration which was probably produced by Ingebjorg Smith while the reverse shows a number of architectural drawings. These include drawings for a refurbishment of the Glasgow Fish Market by Stephen Elliot as well as set design drawings for The Glasgow School Of Art Fashion Show by Adam Bell, Lucy Vaughan and Peter McIlhenny.

These posters advertised an exhibition of work by past and present students from the School Of Design and the Mackintosh School Of Architecture at The Glasgow School Of Art. Dominating both posters is a quote from John Kenneth Galbraith who was a prominent economist during this period. The quote states "It is on the artistic not less than on the engineering and scientific excellence that economic security and economic progress now depend," The exhibition was held between The Mackintosh Museum on The Glasgow School Of Art Campus and Kelvingrove Art Gallery And Museum and ran from the 9th of February to the 1st of March 1985.
