1939: Arts and Entertainment

First, take a look at this series of color photographs taken from 1939-1940. “These images, by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information, are some of the only color photographs taken of the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations.”

Now, listen to my playlist of music from the 1930’s on Spotify..

Finally, take a look at these paintings by American artist Grandma Moses who was discovered as an artist in 1938-1940 when she was almost 80 years old.
