Poster for the Carnegie Centenary with a picture of a town and a quote from Andrew Carnegie.
Text on the poster reads: Carnegie Centenary, November 25, 1935. This, then, is held to be the duty of the man of wealth, to set an example of modest, unostentatious living, shunning display or extravagence; to provide moderately for the legitimate wants of those dependant on him; and, after doing so, to consider all surplus revenues which come to him simply as trust funds, which he is called upon to administer, and strictly bound as a matter of duty to administer in the manner which in his judgement, is best calculated to produce the most beneficial results for the community. Andrew Carnegie.
