Yearbook Artwork 1930

These images all come from the 1930 University of Texas yearbook. While they reflect some aspects of the culture at the time, you would never know the country was in a depression.

Very little of the yearbook was in color, other than these images. I imagine most students could not afford them at the time, under the circumstances. I know I was never able to afford a university yearbook during my four years.

Here you see a student sweating over his impending exams.

And if you look closely enough at the inside of the yearbook, you can read the date Irene received it!
