Typo in transcription of name. Should be "La Guardia" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiorello_La_Guardia "Fiorello Henry La Guardia (/fiəˈrɛloʊ ləˈɡwɑːrdiə/; born Fiorello Enrico La Guardia, (December 11, 1882 – September 20, 1947) was an American attorney and politician who represented New York in the House of Representatives and served as the 99th Mayor of New York City from 1934 to 1945. Known for his irascible, energetic, and charismatic personality and diminutive stature, La Guardia is acclaimed as one of the greatest mayors in American history. Though a Republican, La Guardia was frequently cross-endorsed by other parties, including the rival Democratic Party, under New York's electoral fusion laws."

I love these old posters. I appreciate being able to see such wonderful items from our past that would not have been possible without your efforts. Thank you! I'm not sure what "With no known restrictions on publication" means but I'm wondering if it's okay to use copies of posters for art, both personal or to sell. Thank you very much.

Really excellent work, I love it.

back.roads: The "no known restrictions" note does mean that it's okay to use copies. Glad you're enjoying the art work! -- Helena (LOC)
