Rather than a photograph of a farm or a field, this item is a printed poster from the Farm Security Administration, a New Deal agency that worked with rural families and farmers during the 1930s. Its message is simple: barrels are useful containers for keeping produce, and the poster encourages people to make practical use of them. Posters like this were part of the agency's effort to share practical know-how with households, many of them struggling through the Great Depression. Its place on a board of fruit and vegetable labels suggests the wider theme of food storage and preservation.
