Best Answer

Most people became limners just to simply gain some extra money. They never signed their work and they didn't do much advertising. They mainly found work from going door-to-door or by putting ads in local newspapers. They were also known for moving around a lot- they moved on to another town as soon as business died down where they were. Hope this helped!
