EDITORS COMMENTS
Judgment Day, San Diego, 1938: An Allegorical Poster for Elmer Rice's Play by the Federal Theatre Project This striking poster announces the performance of Elmer Rice's "Judgment Day" at the Federal Theatre Project in San Diego, California, in 1938. The Federal Theatre Project, established by the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935, aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them. The poster's design is an allegory of the Day of Judgment, a Christian concept that signifies the end of the world and the final reckoning of each person's deeds. The central figure, blindfolded and holding a set of scales, represents Justice or the Balance of Good and Evil. The color palette is dominated by earthy tones, reflecting the cultural and artistic sensibilities of the 1930s. The text is bold and clear, with the play's title and author's name, "Elmer Rice," prominently displayed. The poster's design is attributed to Elmer Leopold Reizenstein, although it is unclear if this is the same Elmer Rice, who was also a playwright. The poster's graphic design is a testament to the Federal Theatre Project's commitment to artistic excellence and its role in preserving and promoting American cultural heritage. This poster is a significant historical artifact, showcasing the political and artistic climate of the 1930s and the impact of the New Deal on American theater. It is a reminder of the power of live performance to entertain, educate, and inspire, and of the enduring role of the arts in shaping our collective cultural identity.
