billsticker

Puts up posters

A billsticker is a person who pastes up advertisements, posters, or notices in public places.

The job involves applying paper bills to walls, fences, and designated boards using paste or glue.

Before digital advertising, billstickers were essential for promoting events, products, and political campaigns.

The term is somewhat dated, as the occupation has largely been replaced by modern advertising methods, though the activity persists in street marketing and concert promotion.
