We are excited to announce that we have added 11 new posters by artist Arlington Gregg to the Posters for the People archive. 7 of these gems are "New to the Public Record" - which means they were never catalogued at the national level!

Thanks to the diligent work of Gregg's grandson Ed Walker, we learned about this collection of posters - and about other stunning art by Arlington Gregg in the process. Ed created a Facebook Page here to celebrate and showcase his grandfather's beautiful work. It's also exciting to put a face to the name connected with such fun and joyous posters as those made by Gregg.

Check out all 20 Arlington Gregg posters including the new 11 here!

MORE EXCITING NEWS! This poster is now attributed to Arlington Gregg because the monogram matches other work that Ed found.

FUN FACT: This Arlington Gregg poster was the centerpiece of promotional materials for the Posters for the People book.
