Researching a poster can be quite hard. You have to look at every aspect of it as artists can sometimes cleverly connote an image. Most posters are plain and simple but you tend to find it more in posters for films or general information. For example a women found this poster on an old BART train. As she clearly stated, this poster has a hidden meaning, almost an offense. The people in the poster are obviously very high class people in their time due to the way they are dressed. It's giving off the impression that working class people allowed to ride this train. 
Posters are designed to inform the public about the event being held. It should contain information such as the venue, how much it cost, the time, and possibly a contact number. It will also contain what is going on at the event to convince more of the public to go along.
