Is there a way I could get a higher quality photo of the Westhampton Beach Post Office Mural? I grew up there and used to pick up my grandmother’s mail at the Post Office.
Hello there, I wish I could say such were available. From personal experience attempting to photograph this mural, staff are trained to instruct you that no photography is permitted in the building, and they are prepared to enforce their mistaken belief. — Evan K.
I wonder if they might not take official pictures of the Mural? Wouldn’t it make a beautiful post card..with benefits to go to a charity of some kind? Or to the town Historial Society? Beautiful on perhaps stationery? Very old school history of WHB….well..I like my idea.
