Agricultural Art in the Scottsboro Post Office

While waiting in line for stamps at the Scottsboro, Alabama Post Office, a customer noted the artwork over the postmaster's door, became curious about its origins, and decided to write on her about her discoveries on her blog. In the brief article, she also praises the Postal employees who work there.

Penny discovered that the name of the piece is "Alabama Agriculture," and it was created by an artist named Constance Ortmayer in 1940.
