Some interesting posters from history which you don't see in Design History books

This flickr account is of a nonagenarian Graphic designer. The photostream has some of the most amazing posters created in all these years. A bit informal but contains enough information to know who designed it, when was it designed and what genre.

And some wiki info on Black and White

BLACK AND WHITE is a broad adjectival term used to describe a number of monochrome forms of visual arts. Most forms of visual technology start out in black and white, then slowly evolve into color as technology progresses.

"Black-and-white" as a description is also something of a misnomer, for in addition to black and white most of these media included varying shades of grey. Further, many prints, especially those produced earlier in the development of photography, were in sepia (mainly to provide archival stability), which gave a richer, more subtle shading than reproductions in plain black-and-white, although less so than color.
