DON’T GAMBLE WITH SYPHILIS — WPA HEALTH CAMPAIGN

Created around 1936 by the Illinois WPA Art Project in Chicago, this public health poster warned viewers about syphilis and encouraged them to consult health authorities. The clever gambling metaphor, tumbling dice, and bold blue, yellow, and gray composition demonstrate the striking graphic style used in Depression-era public education campaigns.

WPA & GOVERNMENT POSTERS

Explore a collection of restored vintage American government posters from the early to mid-20th century, including works created for the WPA Federal Art Project, wartime agencies, and public information campaigns. Originally designed to educate, encourage, and inform the American public, these striking posters cover everything from Victory Gardens and food conservation to public health, parks, civic programs, and everyday life. Bold typography, simplified illustration, and distinctive period graphics make these historic designs fascinating pieces of American visual culture—and wonderfully unique wall art today.
