The Shop made some objects that appear to have been initiated and designed by the Shop workers, instead of jobs for the administration or community organizations. These objects include calendars for 1943 and 1944, small square souvenirs from the summer carnivals of 1943 and 1944, and other memorabilia, such as a pennant and paper fan. They are typically signed (among the only prints that are signed), "Compliments of Silk Screen" and were presented as gifts to the community.
