And the painting?

WPA artwork -possibly Minnesota.
Possibly Harold Anchel, but I think he's too famous.
My father picked this up at auction in the late 50's.

The WPA arts program was an incredibly important part of American Art history, and like other WPA programs, gave us things we still enjoy today. The photographs taken by WPA artists are now part of our understanding of history.

What's cool is that painting and Parkers are correct for the period. It was completely by chance that we thought they would look good there.
