County of quilt: Gasconade County
Location of quilt: Cuba St. & Peters St., Owensville

On the State Farm Insurance building, and this quilt does not have a plaque identifying it as the other have.
The quit is called a star in some listing, and an exploding start in others.

History of the building I can find.
"Built: 1915
Style/Design: Greek Revival False Front
False front in the Greek Revival style. Quoins.
Use of cast iron for neo-classical flavor.

"Interesting combination of classical style with new materials. Concrete is used to imitate stone. Addition added to back, door or window has been covered in the front, second story." ~ DNR Historic Survey  PDF pages 950-951
