During World War II, the wallpaper industry was dealt a serious setback. The War Production Board classified wallpaper as a non-essential commodity and greatly reduced the number of allowable styles, new patterns and sample books, and prohibited the use of metallic bronze and aluminum powders. Manufacturers were required to use a lighter weight stock of paper which affected the overall quality of the wallpaper. Full production resumed in 1945 when the limits were removed and manufacturers increased production to keep pace with sky-rocketing consumer spending.
The years immediately following the war were a booming period
for wallpaper sales in the 1946-1947 season manufacturers sold
more than 400,000,000 rolls. The jump in sales can also be attributed
to postwar consumers who purchased wallpaper as relief from
the plain walls of the stark modern interior of the 1920's.

Rosie the Riveter

This 1941 room-box was made by Shar from Washington state. There is so much detail in this little scene. Rosie the Riveter is portrayed her as a young woman who lives in a small "bed-sit" with a murphy bed and a tiny wash basin in the corner. She has a hot plate (made out of scrap wood; the "burners" are dimes painted black!) and she stores her pots underneath on the shelves. She's reading about Pearl Harbor; her riveter is leaning against the door and her lunch pail is on the little table. Perhaps she's going out for the evening; a vintage-looking dress and pair of shoes are on/by the dressing screen. After all she's young and wants to have an evening of swing music with her friends even though there is a war going on! She has a view of Mt. Rainier from her window.
