Things are busy hear at our Advertising Agency in San Jose, CA. Imagine what it was like for Designers, Illustrators and Artist back in the great depression. Closest I can come to that vision is the "Dot Com Bomb. And when things get rough, seems like the first to feel it are the artist. The WPA was a great program to help those who needed work.

The program built many public buildings, projects and roads and operated large arts, drama, media and literacy projects. It fed children and redistributed food, clothing and housing. I've always heard of the great poster designs produced in stunning silk screen, wwood cuts and litography. I always love the Silkscreen posters. I admire them greatly. I found a great resource online at the LIbrary of Congress. I was delighted to find a 1939 Calendar with whimsical illustrations.
