New York City municipal airports, WPA poster, ca. 1937
City of New York municipal airports: No. 1 Floyd Bennett Field - No. 2 North Beach. F.H. La Guardia, Mayor – John McKenzie, Commissioner of Docks. Poster promoting New York's municipal airports, Floyd Bennett Field and North Beach, East River Seaplane bases, Wall Street and 31st Street, showing airplane and seaplane. Works Progress Administration Federal Art Project NYC, 1936 or 1937.
Probably my favorite WPA poster, sadly unattributed. (Although, according to this beautiful book, the designer is Harry Herzog.) Completely reconstructed version reposted.
