Description
Between 1988 and 1992, artist Don Sprague painted 14 murals in and around downtown Coffeyville. Before he began painting any of the murals, Sprague spent hours doing research, making sure each mural was historically accurate. The murals command a second look when people learn that hidden in the scenes is the name of Sprague's son, Tim. The dots after Sprague's signature represent the number of times "Tim" appears in the mural. Maps are available at the Chamber of Commerce office.
