In the Spring of 1968 VISTA was given the
opportunity to put recruiting posters on the sides of every U.S.
Mail truck in Washington, D.C. Unfortunately, they had to be developed,
approved, and printed within ten days. No time for photography
or illustration. No production budget.
There are many ways to measure success. There is empirical data.
Anecdotal information. On rare occasions, there is also the judgment
of history. Rarely in the annals of advertising has a set of seemingly
simple words captured people's imaginations sufficiently to span
generations, transcend political persuasions, and become a part
of the nation's culture.
