Finally, find and print four examples of early advertisements and/or posters (late 1800s-1940s) that express narratives of disease as "ideological markers or cultural anxieties" and briefly analyze how "disease templates forged at the turn of the last century continue to shape popular culture and public policy" today (Nancy Tomes article).
