Dear Joshua,

You might also want to contact Kim Bergen and/or Frank Luca at the
Wolfsonian-Florida International University. They have quite a bit of
WPA material: http://www.wolfsonian.org/collections/c8/index.html

Best of luck!

I would contact Claudia Jacobson, Registrar at the Milwaukee Public
Museum.
They are the custodians of several WPA items, primarily paintings that
were
created in Milwaukee.  She may have developed a policy there.

Good Luck!

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] WPA Materials Disposition Policy

I am looking to better understand regulations concerning WPA produced
materials.  Our museum has dioramas, miniature plaster buildings, prints
of
costume/flags etc in our collection.

As I understand it, all materials created through the WPA project can
not be
sold.  Does anyone have official policy for disposition or worked to
dispose
of these items?

Best regards,

Joshua K. Blay
