I lived nearby for years, and the post office was a functioning one for everyone in the neighborhood. I always enjoyed seeing the mural on the entire to the right when I entered.
I had the pleasure of working on projects with George in 1978 and worked for his son around the same time. Still own a toy illustration that he did for LJN Toys.
