WPA Posters
Posted by Scott
Been meaning to post this one for a while. It’s a poster from the federal WPA (Work Projects Administration) Art Project and is included in the Library of Congress’ collection. The WPA was part of FDR’s “New Deal” and it’s poster program produced some classic images. More posters can be found here

Your philosophy of efficiency in design is definitely having an influence on my opinion of design and current work. I’m even thinking of re-branding my company with much more efficiency. It’s killer how these cats during the time of the WPA weren’t designing with computers or digital imaging. Scott, keep up the great inspirational posts man.
