vintage postcards



Vintage Postcards - found at the NPS Visitor Centers, I fell in love with these postcards!

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!

Based on these original posters, the NPS has commissioned reproduced posters, postcards, and note cards. The ones I have are from Ranger Doug.
