Description
Originally installed in the Burns post office, this mural was one of the Treasury Section’s 48-State Post Office Competition murals.
“New Deal mural entitled “Cattle Round-Up” painted by Jack Wilkinson in 1941. When a new post office was built in the early 90’s, the mural was moved to the 2nd floor court room in the Harney County Courthouse.”
