Shiny Bright Team

Christmas clearances are a great time to stock up on glitzy elements for your locker decorating. Many school colors include gold, silver or other holiday shiny colors. Keep the "team" in mind while scavenging sale racks!

Make Your Own Spirit Clipart

Start by finding clipart that you like, ...or ask a creative friend to doodle the sports equipment for the team. Use a copy machine or scan to repeat the designs. Make a page of designs for each of the locker committee members. Feel free to right clip on this pic and save it to your computer. It will be easy for you to print out from there! Hope this helps!

Nose Art

Although wildly painted squadron insignia was common in World War I, true nose art did not occur until the Second World War. At the beginning of World War II, before the idea of painting an image on the skin of a plane arose, crews of the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) pasted pages from Esquire Magazine, Men Only, and Look magazine on the nose section, fuselage, and tail sections of the B-17 bombers known as Flying Fortresses. By the end of the war, there was such a demand for artists, who received up to $15.00 per aircraft, that nose art could be called an industry (Logan). The phenomenon peaked during the Second World War, but what were the reasons for this so-called "Golden Age" of nose art?
