Item Description
Pick any three posters we offer on our website. Each poster is a hand pulled screened print in either a reproduction of the original historic WPA (Works Progress Administration) poster or a contemporary design to fit this style--over 40 images to choose from.
Posters shown here are just a sampling of the images available. Visit our website to see the complete collection.
Between 1935 and 1943 the WPA's Federal Art Project printed over two million posters in 35,000 different designs to stir the public's imagination for education, theater, health, safety, and travel. Due to their fragile nature only two thousand posters have survived to this day; less than one tenth of one percent! These rare images were rescued and restored from black and white photos beginning in 1993 by Ranger Doug.
To learn more about the history of these images visit www.rangerdoug.com.
Item Special Note
After the auction closes the winning bidder will be contacted by Ranger Doug to place order for his/her three poster preferences. Ranger Doug will ship all three posters together to one address in the United States.
