EDITORS COMMENTS

Horse Eats Hat" is an intriguing and humorous image from the 1930s, showcasing a horse wearing a top hat and seemingly about to eat it. This photograph is a testament to the creative spirit of the Federal Theatre Project (FTP), an initiative established by the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935. The FTP aimed to preserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live performances to communities across the United States that had previously been deprived of this cultural experience. This photograph is a prime example of the innovative and playful spirit of the FTP. The origins of this image are uncertain, but it is believed to be associated with the FTP's production of "Horse Eats Hat," a farce by Marc Amedee Michel, which premiered at the Maxine Elliott's Theatre in New York City in 1936. The photograph's graphic design elements, including the bold lettering and the use of color, evoke the energy and excitement of the era. The horse in the photograph wears a top hat, a nod to the human characters in the play who also wore hats as part of their costumes. The horse's expression and the title of the photograph suggest a comedic twist on the traditional notion of a hat-wearing character. This photograph is a valuable piece of American cultural heritage, reflecting the creativity and ingenuity of the FTP during the New Deal era. It is a reminder of the power of art and theater to bring joy and wonder to people's lives, even in the most challenging of times. The photograph's text, "Horse Eats Hat, New York, 1936. The Federal Theatre Project," adds to its historical significance, providing context and a sense of the larger cultural movement from which it emerged. This photograph is a unique and intriguing snapshot of American history, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the theater.
