Yellowstone Postcards

Found these beauties in Yellowstone last Saturday. (Did I mention that we went to Yellowstone National Park?) The posters were expensive so I just got the postcard versions.

From the postcard:
Between 1935 and 1943 the Works Progress Administration's (WPA) 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. The National Park image shown here is also available in the original poster format from many National Park Bookstores.

I am not the best designer in the world, nor do I have the best design eye. I do, however, like these. I think they are beautiful. We need more of this kind of stuff today.
