Painted Mural On Wall, King's Library

This is a mural on the Corgan Library's wall by the man desk.  It depicts coal breakers and a village of houses in a mountain setting like the Wyoming Valley.

One of the librarians said it was not a replica of any one breaker, although it does remind me of the Huber.
