Arizona Murals Part II, The History Of The Town

More murals seen in and around Benson, Arizona, and while not all of these are signed I'm fairly sure they are all by the prolific Doug Quarles.

This post is of the murals that depict the early history of Benson and Cochise County.

 I would be remiss not to mention that the above mural is signed by Doug Quarles with an acknowledgement that it is taken from an original painting by Pablo Alonzo 

A Fistfull Of Murals In Benson, Arizona

Drove through Benson, Arizona and discovered a wealth of murals decorating the buildings of the small town.

There are quite a few of them, most appearing to be painted (and signed) by a gentleman named Doug Quarles.

Mr. Quarles has painted so many murals in Benson that I'm going to have to post the pics of 'em on consecutive posts as I just do not have the time or patience to post all the pics at one sitting.

Today's post will feature the railroad murals.

The answer to that question is yes, of course there is...thousands and thousands of things are better than that.
