Image:PalmercarpenterA.jpg , featured[edit]
- Info 1942 photograph of a carpenter at work. Encyclopedic both as a document of carpentry during that era and as a historic example of early color photography. Supersaturation was popular in the United States during that era; a fine example of the esthetics of its place and time. Created by Palmer, Alfred T., photographer. (Farm Security Administration - Office of War Information Collection) - original Image:Palmercarpenter.jpg uploaded by 3am - artifact/scratch removal and nomination by Durova. --Durova 02:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

- Support Wow, before reading the contents, I thought it is a good commercial picture. And 1942 phtographs!, just wow again. --Applebee 08:17, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

- Neutral I've seen worse ;-), but the burnt out patches prevent me to support it. Lycaon 17:26, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

- Yes. Different projects have different standards, of course, but someone decided to renominate the original upload on en.Wikipedia and this edit received very positive responses. When it looked like this would pass I nominated it here also (and started digging through the Library of Congress files for other work by this photographer and uploading the best files to Commons).
