1930s High School Zine


Okay, "literary magazine." But the same idea nevertheless. DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx produced student publications from 1929 through the 1940s that are available here thanks to the New Deal Network. It's a fantastic resource to show any poetry/zine/publication students. Not only were these high school students creating and exploring during a time of economic crisis and the birth of the term "teenager," but it's an example of student work being a legacy that is still read 80 years later.
