Posters of the WPA

[a beautiful as-new copy, with no discernible wear to either book or jacket; the book downgraded to Near Fine only because of the presence of a bookplate on the front endpaper]. (color and B&W poster reproductions) Lavishly-illustrated history of the eight-year program (1935-1943) sponsored by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) which turned out more than two million posters, from 35,000 designs. "This is a collector's edition of discovery and appreciation for the nearly lost art of the WPA poster. They have importance not as an overlooked curiosity or as a scholarly footnote, but as a vital body of work that is a significant part of our national art heritage." ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
