Portland used to have so many great advertising murals that have faded with time and never replaced. Then there are new ads in other places, I would love to see murals like this put up in Portland or someone take these old ads that have become warn with time and repaint them and make them new again.
I would love to see the ads from the early 1900's that were here.

Hi Fred, Oh, I see soooo many things. I think I would have to stand in front of this mural for some time to see all there is to see. I think there is some real history there. What a beautiful work of art! Thanks for sharing!

Elaine - Murals are a really great form or art but they are sure hard to frame. I also like the way that smaller parts make the whole on this one.

Fred, I am pretty sure I have seen that mural in person when I lived in Eugene. It's been 8 years.

Eugene, next door to Springfield, has a lot of great murals too. The time and talent that goes into these murals is amazing. Below is a picture of a mural on the back of a building at 11th Avenue and City View in Eugene.
