A Simple and Vital Design: The Story of the Indiana Post Office Murals
- Used Book in Good Condition
In the 1930s the Public Works of Art Project of the Treasury Department started a program "to secure suitable art of the best quality for the embellishment of public buildings." Post offices built under the New Deal were among the beneficiaries of this program. In Indiana, thirty-six of the thirty-seven original murals still exist. The color photography by Darryl Jones, a noted Indianapolis photographer, brings the murals to life.
