I'm tempted to print that out and hang it in my cube.

I was trying to find the image archive that came from. Is this where you found it?

The relevant collection of posters may be found here. I haven't gone through all of them, yet. Public art sure was good back in the '40s.

NARA's filing system is pretty Byzantine; but they have, in the past few years, done much to use the Internet as a way of finding stuff. Their main online Catalog (complete enough for casual users) is here. Limit the media type and search by keyword until you get what you want, and then look carefully at the catalogue entry to determine which Record Group and series of records it's in, and then refine your search with that data ( ... )

There are some excellent artifacts there. Now I just need access to a decent color printer. I'm decorating my bicycle workspace with various things like these. Now I just need some candles for the shrine to Merckx. heh.

You know, I just noticed that the link that I put in there expires after a while. Were you able to find the relevant stuff?
