Talk:Broadside (printing)

Should this be merged with "Broadsheet?" They seem to be the same thing. 68.148.29.144 (talk) 20:27, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree. Both articles state that the two terms are synonyms, and since this article is very short, it would make sense to move its content to Broadsheet and replace it with a redirect. I'll apply the appropriate merger tags.--Pat Berry (talk) 17:54, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

I've now removed the undocumented claims that broadside and broadsheet is the same thing, and have expanded the explanation what broadside used to be and what it is today. Thus I think it's clear that broadside and broadsheet are two very different things.Thomas Blomberg (talk) 10:19, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Many examples

When you type: broadsheet thirty years' war - in Google Images, you get many examples from the 16th/17th centuries.Marcin862 (talk) 18:39, 8 June 2016 (UTC) And some information from a journal article: https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/751404.pdf?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Marcin862 (talk) 19:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Merge from Street literature

I merged the article Street literature into this one. The refs are now in a hidden comment below the reflist template. I guess there could be an article about street literature, but this is duplicate content. Below is a copy of Street literature at this date. I am also going to move the content of Broadside (music) into Broadside ballad, which is the clear and common name.

Street literature

An 1828 broadside This article is about broadside printing. For the modern literary genre, see Urban fiction. Street literature or broadsides began in the 16th century and continued until the mid-19th century as a type of printing of large printed sheets of paper, designed to be plastered onto walls. By the mid-19th century, the advent of newspapers and inexpensive novels resulted in the demise of the street literature broadside. In the Victorian era, broadside ballads were a popular type of broadside and were printed on thin sheets of paper and sold for a penny or half-penny in London. Broadsides were generally folded twice to make small pamphlets or chapbooks. Collections of songs in chapbooks were known as garlands. Broadsides pasted on walls are still used as a form of mass communication in Haredi Jewish communities, where they are known by the Yiddish term "pashkevil" (pasquil), even if they are not attacks or lampoons.

Article focus on English-speaking countries

This article mostly focuses on broadsides published in English-speaking countries, whilst I feel that this topic should be discussed from a more global perspective as there exists research in many other languages on broadsides published in other languages. For example: eenbladdrukken (Low Countries), feuilles volantes (France), ojas volantes (Spanish)... but also from non-European countries such as Japan. Broadly speaking, broadsides were prolific wherever printing presses were present, as they were the cheapest type of print for publishers-printers to produce.--Tabea Hochstrasser (UmU) (talk) 10:22, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
