Fremont Michigan Post Office

ADDRESS: 19 S. Division Ave., Fremont, Michigan, 49412
ARTIST: Lumen Martin Winter
TITLE: Pony Express
MEDIUM: Oil on canvas (mural)
STATUS: The Fremont post office is still an active, operating facility and the mural can be viewed by interested members of the public. It resides in the lobby on the wall above the postmaster’s door.
YEAR: 1938

The colors are amazing in the mural. That’s the first thing that sticks out for me when I view it. This was another stop during our summer 2015 vacation to Michigan.

Another thing I noticed about this building where the wonderful arched windows in front. I guess you are thinking to your self, why would someone notice these things? Or who does that and who would write about in a blog article like this.

Well my friends, me of course. That’s just what keeps my sail up on a non-windy day.

What do you think about this building or mural? Please comment and share below.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.
