Honor, Courage, Commitment: Navy Recruitment Posters in World War II An Honors Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Honors in History By Shelby Georges Under the mentorship of Dr. Craig Roell ABSTRACT Navy recruitment posters from World War II are an important piece of American culture. The iconic signage can be seen in antique stores and textbooks alike. However, these posters provide more than just bold imagery and vintage decor. By analyzing recruitment posters as if they were advertisements and placing them in the context of the time period, many facets of American identity can be understood, especially regarding race, gender, and patriotism. These posters, while they almost never stated the specific outlined duties of Naval careers or requirements for enlisting, advertised to readers under the premise that they understood the guidelines of who was allowed to enter the armed forces and a basic understanding of the war effort.

Collar Works Gallery | Troy, NY | www.collarworks.org Susan Anthony !Troy Project, 2013 - ongoing, Archival Digital Prints, $200 ea. Troy, New York was one of the most prosperous cities in the United States during the Industrial Revolution, because of its proximity to the Hudson River, the Mohawk River and the Erie Canal. Troy suffered greatly when industry moved West and the economy has never really recovered. There are signs of change because of the community's resilience, but it is a slow, uphill battle. The story of Troy is one of suffering and sadness, but it is also one of hope and growth. My photographs depict the juxtaposition of past and present, old and new, !decay and rebirth in this remarkable historical city. Susan never planned to do this project. She visited Troy with a friend one day and fell in love with the city. She continued photographing on the street every other week until she met a Rabbi who introduced her to a number of Troy’s residents. Susan began photographing as many people who were interested, and each photo !shoot led to another. She’s been photographing in Troy for almost five years. !______________________________________________________________________________ Susan Anthony was born in Brooklyn, NY. Susan received her Bachelor’s Degree at Cooper Union, her Master’s Degree in Fine Arts at Berkeley, and a Master’s in Teaching Fine Art and Art Therapy at NYU and The New School. Many of her photographs are done in upstate New York, where she has a home in Columbia County, and in downtown Manhattan, where she has lived and worked for many years.

    Oral history interview with Paul Cadmus, 1988 March 22-May 5 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Paul Cadmus on March 22, 1988. The interview took place in Weston, Connecticut, and was conducted by Judd Tully for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview JUDD TULLY: Tell me something about your childhood. You were born in Manhattan? PAUL CADMUS: I was born in Manhattan. I think born at home. I don't think I was born in a hospital. I think that the doctor who delivered me was my uncle by marriage. He was Dr. Brown Morgan. JUDD TULLY: Were you the youngest child? PAUL CADMUS: No. I'm the oldest. I's just myself and my sister. I was born on December 17, 1904. My sister was born two years later. We were the only ones. We were very, very poor. My father earned a living by being a commercial lithographer. He wanted to be an artist, a painter, but he was foiled. As I say, he had to make a living to support his family. We were so poor that I suffered from malnutrition. Maybe that was the diet, too. I don't know. I had rickets as a child, which is hardly ever heard of nowadays.

    Subverted PD List | About Term Extension | Constitutionality | Media | Letters | Value of the Public Domain | Congress | Statutes and Treaties | Legislative Materials | | Other Sites | Opposing Copyright Extension Home Page | Some Famous Works and Year of First Publication (Subverted Public Domain List) Dennis S. Karjala Professor of Law Arizona State University This list shows a few works of music, literature, and film that, as far as I can tell, were first published in the years shown. The "Subverted Public Domain" begins with the year 1923. Works published in that year would already be in the public domain but are still protected by the legislative swindle known as the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998. Any United States work published before 1964 lost its copyright in the 28th year after publication unless the copyright was formally renewed at the Copyright Office. (Congress made renewal automatic for works published after 1963, so most of those works are, and for a very long time will be, under copyright.) To check on the copyright status of works from the 1923-63 era, it is therefore necessary to determine whether the copyright was renewed. See How to Determine Whether a Work is in the Public Domain, and links contained there, for more details. Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden was published in 1911, so it went into the public domain on Jan. 1, 1987. Its entrance into the public domain has spawned a huge outpouring of new and creative derivative works, including plays, musicals, video and audio cassettes, annotated and searchable online versions, and even cookbooks.
