ADDRESS: 617 McCorkle Boulevard, Westerville, Ohio 43082
ARTIST: Olive Nuhfer
TITLE: The Daily Mail
MEDIUM: Oil on canvas (mural)
STATUS: The former Westerville post office is no longer an active, operating facility. The mural was moved to the newer facility on McCorkle Boulevard and can be viewed by interested members of the public. It resides in the lobby on the wall behind the retail counter.
YEAR: 1937
I waited around at the other Westerville post office to see the mural. However, it was not located at the building, it was located here.
It’s been framed and placed behind the retail counter. It is easy to see but is locked up with a gate during non-business hours. There are also some historical photos of the old building behind the other retail counter.
