📺Welcome back to the Macau era of bright neon signs
。
🎞️In that era, advertisements were huge and exaggerated. In my case, the super large Coke Fanta bottle sign, the shining neon sign at night, the large exterior wall advertisement outside the theater, these artworks that have become film elements represent the romance of that era, the brilliance of Hong Kong cinema, and the sentiment of Macau, a tribute to the past years. ✨
。
📽️ In the past, soda and beer advertising posters were hand-drawn. The advertising style was unique and charming. There was no Internet and social media at that time. Advertising became one of the main ways for people to obtain information and products The exhibition displays newspaper advertisements, outdoor advertisements, classic metal calendar signs, company advertising leaflets, and old-style TV advertisements.

🇲🇴 Macau interesting little story: Peter Street, also called "White Horse Walk", locals hear a lot of "White Horse Walk", it turns out that its origin is because there was a foreign agency agent of a white horse whiskey, in the store made a large white horse as an advertising sign, so there was a white horse shop.
