A 1930s WPA poster for a free day at Brookside Zoo.
This poster comes from the Works Progress Administration, the Depression era programme that created jobs for nearly 8 million Americans between 1935 and 1943, including artists commissioned to promote public places like Brookside Zoo. A prowling big cat and bold lettering give it real graphic impact. It is a fitting piece for a hallway, study or a child's room with a love of animals.
