I’ve been searching through a lot of old digitized newspaper articles, and along with the text are lot of great old ads. Most of the graphics are obscured but you get the gist of what they represent. I found this old ad for “snake oil” and played around with photoshop to get a pattern on the type that almost looks like the pattern on a water moccasin. (that’s a scary snake you’ll find in and near water in the South).
