ART IN DAILY LIFE Prince of Wales's Appreciation of Hoardings The Prince of Wales, when speaking recently at a Royal Academy Banquet, said: “Our Hoardings might now be called without exaggeration the art galleries of the great public. Many of the greatest successes on these hoardings are reproductions of pictures which have hung in the Royal Academy. Advertisements now are a necessary adjunct to business life, and their refinement has so advanced as to justify their description as artistic. Their influence in bringing in colour and decoration to otherwise grey, monotonous streets, is not to be dispised.” Overseas visitors have expressed the opinion that many of the hoardings controlled by Messrs. Chandler & Co., Ltd., throughout New Jfealand have no superior anywhere in the World.
