EDITORS COMMENTS
- This evocative poster, created during the period of 1936 to 1941 for the Illinois Statewide WPA (Works Progress Administration) Library Project, invites us to embark on a literary journey filled with promise and anticipation. The image captures a young boy, bundled up against the winter chill, pulling a sled piled high with books towards a cozy, inviting home. The snow-covered landscape, dotted with trees shedding their winter coats, sets the stage for a season of introspection and learning. The WPA, an essential New Deal agency established to provide employment during the Great Depression, funded various projects, including the Library Project, which aimed to improve and expand public library services. This poster, with its powerful message, was part of a series that promoted the importance of reading and education. The use of a child as the central figure underscores the belief that a love for reading is cultivated at a young age. The poster's design, with its bold, clear typography and striking visual, is a testament to the graphic design skills of the WPA artists. The colors, primarily red, white, and blue, evoke a sense of warmth and optimism, making this poster a timeless reminder of the power of literature to transport us, inspire us, and enrich our lives. As we begin a new year, let us be inspired by this image of a child embarking on a year of good reading ahead.
