Stevens Outdoor Advertising

Stevens Outdoor Advertising

Started by S. P. Stevens (Stanford P. Stevens) — see Stanford P. Stevens. Project lore says Stevens began by painting H and H signs and billboards like the Master Chef “We Serve” hand-painted plywood sign in the collection (acquired July 2014 from West Texas, ~4×8 ft red plywood).

Open questions

• Stevens Outdoor founding year, San Antonio address(es), and directory citations
• Other surviving Stevens-painted H&H signs or billboards
• Relationship to the parallel agency engagements with Pitluk and (later) Broggi — did Stevens handle the outdoor/billboard work while Pitluk/Broggi handled print and broadcast?
