Description
With the Seal removed from the wall, Director Dr. Philip Brooks supervises while Loren Raines, John Martino, and Wayne Fellows place the Seal on the cart. Milton Perry is behind the Seal. The seal was removed so that the mural by Thomas Hart Benton, "Independence and the Opening of the West" could be painted on the wall.
