And another piece, a modernist Lady Liberty by Jacques Minkus. A simple, confident design, featuring the subject in a simplified light-and-shadow style. Wearing a crown of stars, a red-and-white-striped garment, and the text: "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness"

Another WW2-era printed cachet piece that I thought was a very elegant. The "V for Victory" motif, line drawings of civilians and soldiers (representing the home front), the torch of liberty, all packed into a tight, rectangular piece.

All right, keeping this WW2 theme going. I came across a trove of this stuff, and I resolved to bring these designs "back from the dead"
This one was from a cachet envelope that I think resonates today: "LIBERATION FROM NAZI TERROR WILL COME THROUGH OUR VICTORY"

The international legacy of Abraham Lincoln is genuinely fascinating
Here, the shared struggle of the US and China against the forces of reaction (Imperial Japan and the Confederacy) is highlighted in this design, digitally-restored and upscaled from a 1942 US postage stamp

Well it sure doesn't sound like you wanted to just watch a movie and hang out in this transcript. "Yr open mouth awaiting my harvest. Drink me Love." What did you mean by that, Mr. Secretary?"
