This article presents an array of changes undergone by advertising communication over years under the influence of the knowledge of the structure of persuasive messages, attentional mechanisms, and learning theory. What turned out to be characteristic was that the devices applied in messages point to the constitution of a certain grammar of persuasion subordinated to impression-based rules of reception, which is related to the use of signs that are perceptible for the recipient and oriented towards the intended reconstruction of a message.

The collected material is presented against analyses of selected press advertisements of the 1930s.
