Thanks so much for reposting this! I'm enjoying the panoramas (and vertoramas) that people tag for you and that you repost.

...so I walked along the mural taking photos as I went. You can see all six of them here. This is after the vertical geometry was corrected the same way in all of them. Then they were stitched together in Photoshop.

Here's is what the mural looked like in Google Street View in May 2018. Taken from Baldwin looking south east. There isn't enough space between the fence and the mural to take a picture of the whole mural.
