produced from 1936 to 1943 by various branches of the WPA.
Of the 2,000 WPA posters known to exist, the Library of
Congress's collection of more than 900 is the largest. The
posters were designed to publicize exhibits, community
activities, theatrical productions, and health and
educational programs in seventeen states and the District
of Columbia, with the strongest representation from
California, Illinois, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The
results of one of the first U.S. Government programs to
support the arts, the posters were added to the Library's
holdings in the 1940s.»
