A promotional poster for Wood's School of Business & Shorthand advertises two skills at the center of commercial training: bookkeeping and shorthand. Private business colleges like this one spread across American cities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as growing offices needed clerks, bookkeepers and stenographers. Shorthand, which let a writer keep pace with dictation, was a prized skill, and posters like this one were a common way to recruit students.
