The last glimpse of a James Abbot mural in McCleary


Jan. 2, 2016

The last glimpse of a James Abbot mural in McCleary, shortly before the remaining wall of the former Rhodes Grocery was destroyed. The little building on the corner, also destined to be cleared, was the office of Norman Porter's newspaper, The McCleary Stimulator, in the 1950s.

A website devoted to James Abbott's murals can be found at this link:
