Mural/Our World

Left side of mural on side of pharmacy, Jackson's Point

This mural is on the outside of a pharmacy that carries a huge variety of items very much the same way as a general store might.  The building it's painted on is quite old so may have been a general store at one time.

    This is very special. Brought back memories of a general store my uncle owned many years ago in Kansas. Nice find!

    I wonder how long it takes to paint something this detailed...
    And how long it lasts...

    Amazing murals. The horses look like they are actually running down the street.

    This is such a lovely mural with a nice sense of movement. I guess the quaint general stores of days gone by have evolved into mega stores like WalMart.

    I had to look hard at the store front to see it not being the real thing as they did just a picture perfect job.

    Great mural. We once lived in a small Iowa town with a real General Store. It had operated in the same location since the 19th Century and still had buggy hardware for sale, but I loved their meat market the best. Could only buy what they were cutting that day, unless I put in a special order.
