Post Office (former) Mural – Booneville MS

Description

“Mural entitled “Scenic and Historic Booneville” painted in 1943. This is one of the murals that’s title does not match it’s content. The artist had wanted to paint a minor, local Civil War skirmish–hence the title. The Section of Fine Arts said no. This mural is still in the old PO building–now the Chancery Court Building.”
