We have sidewalks in Tucson stamped WPA. And Tucson still needs more sidewalks. And art.

If you suggested such a thing these days you'd be condemned as a communist.

And probably a goddamn hippy for suggesting that art is work.

Yes Roosevelt, FDR.

It's a shame Chris Farley isn't around to play Rob Ford, the guy is a trainwreck. Sorry he's your Mayor.

Oh my god! I followed the link in your post, and then the link in that page, to the registry of these paintings, and learned that there is one in my local post office: http://www.newdealartregistry.org/renderartworks/SouthwarkBranchPostOffice/Philadelphia/PA/! I have literally never noticed it. I will definitely pay close attention next time I go.

Well, I left a comment with a link, and it landed in spam. I just wanted to point to the painting that I found :) Looking forward to checking it out in person next time I have to mail a package.
