Wordless Wednesday



This WPA poster from the late 1930s, designed by Vera Bock, is just as applicable today as it was then. It's also the perfect segway into my next blog entry.

I like how you are using readily available sources like the American Memory Project to assist in creating a "picture" for a time period! I like to do that too, since I don't always have photographs of relatives, it really helps to develop their life in the time period that they lived. I have awarded you the Kreativ Blogger Award!

Enjoy!
