A flyer (also spelled flier or called a circular, handbill or leaflet) is a single page leaflet advertising a nightclub, event, service, or other activity. Flyers are typically used by individuals or businesses to promote their products or services. They are a form of mass marketing or small scale, community communication. The verb “flyering” or “fliering” has evolved as a colloquial expression meaning “to put up flyers”.

Flyers, along with postcards, pamphlets and small posters, are forms of communication for people who want to engage the public but do not have the money or desire to advertise over the internet, in telephone directories, or classified or display advertising in newspapers or other periodicals. As marketing became more direct in the late 1980s and 1990s, the flyer printing evolved and currently there are many formats to be found. In this article I have collected 25 superb examples divided in two categories: the first one is a gallery of used flyers and the second one is a collection of flyers that you can buy.
