I finally find the only BW picture of dad’s mural and every one of us in front of it. It existed at least till I

went to Taiwan in 1964. Hope this will bring back your fond childhood memory.

Figure 1 The year is 1960? The reset background Mural

The mural was painted on the outside of two partition shelves, each 4 feet wide and around 6.5 feet tall.

Its height leveled with the door frame.

In the 50+ after Russian send a rocket to the moon, he believed China will do the same. He used one

black stroke outlined the map of China, Hainan, Taiwan and a huge Rocket touching the red moon at its

tip.

This time I think I get the size and color not too different from the original. You may compare the

previous one I drew from memory and know what kind of an artist I am!!
