Living New Deal"The post office in Jasper, Texas houses a New Deal mural entitled “Industries of Jasper.” Painted by Alexander Levin and completed in 1939, the work was commissioned by the Treasury Section of Fine Arts. The mural, since relocated, was created for Jasper’s nearby Depression-era post office building."
The mural was moved to the new post office in 1989. Unfortunately the mural is not out in the open postal box area. It is behind locked glass doors on Saturday and Sunday.
