The wooden reliefs have not been in the post office for probably over 50 years. They were taken down during renovation, given to a local man that shoveled snow (as his payment), then he paid a dental bill with 2 of the remaining 3 pieces. I spoke to the dentist just today (3.3.24) and he has since given the 2 pieces to “someone” north of Detroit years back that wanted to display them but he does not remember who, when, where.
