Shelley's Loan Company

Artist: Unknown

Commissioned by: Unknown

Location: 47th Street and Prairie

Medium: Mural

Commentary: Fading and almost forgotten this mural was clearly made to celebrate the once thriving Blues community of 47th Street. Even with much of its color lost it presents a striking sight, especially because of the way that the different faces and figures seem to weave in and out almost like a piece of music.
As of now, no one can remember when the picture was done or who did it. Do you think you could solve this mystery?
