EDITORS COMMENTS
A New Beginning: The Power of Small Loans and a Mule's Back This evocative poster, created during the Resettlement Administration between 1935 and 1937, captures the essence of hope and determination in the face of adversity. The image of a weathered farmer, dressed in work clothes and wearing a worn hat, sits atop a mule, holding the reins with a steady hand. In the background, a plow is poised and ready for use in the fertile soil. The Resettlement Administration, a New Deal agency established during the Great Depression, aimed to provide assistance to rural families struggling to make ends meet. One of its most effective programs was the provision of small loans to farmers, enabling them to purchase essential tools and livestock, such as this mule and plow, to begin farming again. The poster's caption, "Small Loans," is emblazoned across the top in bold, capitalized letters, emphasizing the importance of this initiative. The words "give farmers a new start" are written below, encircled by an image of a hand reaching out, symbolizing the helping hand extended to those in need. The poster's simple yet powerful design effectively conveys the message of renewal and the transformative impact of small loans on the lives of struggling farmers. With the mule and plow as symbols of hard work and perseverance, this poster stands as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of community support during times of hardship.
