During the 1930's Depression era she worked mainly in the medium of lithography, contributing at least three such works of art to the Ohio Chapter of the Works Progress Administration (W.P.A.). Instituted by President Roosevelt, the W.P.A. actively assisted artists during this decade of hard economic times. From 1932-1937 Guilbeau was also commissioned on four separate occasions to provide prints for the Cleveland Print Makers “Print-a-Month” series. During the 1940's and 1950's, Honore Guilbeau illustrated a number of fine books, including works for the Limited Editions Club. Among her works in this field were, Twain's, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, The Adventures of Hajji Baba (1947) and George Meredith's, The Shaving of Shagpat Courtesy, Greg & Connie Peters
