Glad to see the WPA posters showcased here! May I recommend the book by Ennis Carter, Posters for the People, Art of the WPA to everybody. A beautiful anthology which provides a lot of background on the history of the WPA Art Projects and shows posters from the LOC collection and others.

I, for one, get really annoyed at the page corner folders. Yes, a bookmark would indeed be better....
