Description |
Mural was created for the Renton post office, one of two post office murals Jacob Elshin did as winner of contests run by the Section of Fine Arts, not WPA despite its inclusion in the Tacoma exhibit. See The Living New Deal article on this mural, mention of Elshin in the September 1938 issue of the Treasury Section’s Bulletin when he won the commission for the University Station post office in Seattle and the Archives of American Art has an oral history interview with Elshin, where he clarifies the distinction between his WPA murals and Section murals when the interviewer is confusing them. His earlier murals at West Seattle High School were created for the WPA, though. |
