A WPA-era fresco titled "Airmail" done originally for a Melrose Park, IL post office was thought to be lost to the ages. Well it has been found! It's in pretty rough shape right now, but the hope is that the funds can be raised to restore this beautiful and important piece of public art. Listen to a report on Chicago Public Radio here and read about the fresco here.
