THELMA JOHNSON STREAT (1911 - 1959)
Totem Pole Figure.

Color screenprint, circa 1945-50. 359x279 mm; 14 1/8x11 inches, full margins. Signed and inscribed "Children's City, Hawaii" in pencil, lower margin. A very good impression of this scarce print.

After marrying her manager Edgar Kline and moving to Hawaii in 1952, Streat established Children's City, an arts center designed to introduce children to art and to the value of cultural diversity.
