On my second day at the archives, I pulled open a drawer that was literally overflowing with event posters from the last 50 years of Grinnell's Art and Music departments. Many of these were stunning, either hand drawn or beautifully printed. Some of my favorites are below, and if we accomplish nothing else this year, let's bring back the Renaissance Feast.

 The ring on the back of Billy the Kid's hand reads, "Let's Rodeo."

 

 

Barons of Beefe: probably delicious.

Saucey Beans: probably less so.

 

Let us know if you were at any of these events, and stop by to see the poster collection soon!
