The Case of the Missing Park Posters | Retro Report

Learn about a former park ranger’s search for the missing Park Service posters and what those posters can teach us about a New Deal era arts program. A collection of advertising posters created in the 1930s and 40s through the Works Progress Administration depicted heroic vistas of national parks and monuments, including Zion, Yosemite, Glacier and Grand Canyon. But few records were kept, and through the years, most of the posters were lost. Today, a former park ranger is on the hunt to complete the collection.
