The post office murals have a very interesting history. The project was conceived as a way to give starving artists some work during the depression. Many of them were painted by "unknowns" who went on to achieve greater fame. Here in my town of Westbrook, ME, we had a mural which is now in the Portland Museum of Art. It was moved there went a new post office was built in the 1970s. Unfortunately, not all murals have survived. For more, this link has some details and pictures...
