Child Size Masterpieces for Step 8: Timeline of Transportation

44 postcard-size reproductions of beautiful paintings to be placed on a Time Line of dates. History comes alive with artistic representations of dugout canoes, sailing ships, covered wagons, horse drawn streetcars, early steam engines, open sleighs, the Wright Brothers plane and many modern means of conveyance. Each reverse side features a description of the vehicle, its place in history and information about the artist. Placing these postcards on a Time Line illustrates both the sequence of transportation development in the United States and the development of different styles of American art.
