Summary: Scale drawing of planned mural.  This mural was installed at the corner of 5th and Cambria Streets for the 1979 Feria del Barrio [Neighborhood Fair].  Part of the Mural and Banner Project organized by the Spanish Merchants Association and the graphic artist, Domingo Negrón, the 1979 work was produced by Taller Puertorriqueño and Gráficas 5000 in an effort, in Negrón's words, to create "bright and effective visual impact in the heart of our commercial district."  (Negrón to Richard Torbert, 18 April 1979).  The mural was underwritten by Girard Bank and its completion was heralded with a raffle and flyers.
