What did a Meiji/Edo Japanese wanted poster & a bulletin board look like?

What I mean by my question is:
Were the wanted posters drawn in ukiyo-e style or drawn more realistically? Where they painted in colour or black & white?
What style was the bulletin boards constructed- bamboo slats, solid wood or other??

If a picture of what these would’ve looked like is available, it’d be most helpful. I want to know because I’m doing research on old Japanese culture.

Bulletin board during Edo period was made of wood as there was hardly paper.

It looks like the plate on the 5th row from the top in the below site.
