| Description: | Throughout the southern parts of Ghana and Nigeria, fading billboards still advertise schnapps gin imported from the Netherlands. Somewhat marginalized in the midst of an abundance of colourful billboards that advertise beer, soft drinks, mobile phones, religion, and beauty products as keys to the modern, international world, the schnapps gin adverts are different.1 Both the illustration and the slogan on these billboards are meant to evoke African tradition and a link to the traditional status of chiefs and elders. |
