Documentation The Pioneers of the Advertising World Timeline Newspapersand magazines:the dawn of mass media --> Newspapers and magazines:the dawn of mass media In the Meiji period, the advent of newspaper and magazine media facilitated the convey- ance of large amounts of information to a much broader range of people. The newspaper played a vital role in modern advertising.

For cigarettes, the advertising competition between domestic and foreign-made tobacco products garnered public attention, and new sales promotion ideas such as giveaways and street advertising competed for product recognition.
