Love the link. All the posters are awesome. My mother had a painting in the "painting's" gallery years ago titled "unknown artist" however she was too shy and never let them know it was painted by her. Go figure. Oh well at least she knew it was hers. My sister collected posters from the 60's (she was a true hippy then) I wish I had kept them. I remember the Jefferson Airplane poster :crybaby and alot of war protest posters. Boy they would be so great to still have. But alas what is gone is gone. Need to make plans to go to Washington and see all these beautiful posters. If time off work allows. Sandra

Is it too late for you to get the credit for your Mom's painting?
