If you have not had the opportunity to visit Beloit, WI,  you have missed seeing the wonderful murals displayed on The North Wall of the old Beloit Buildings. The buildings housed dedicated Beloit workers serving the Paper Industry from 1848 when the corporation was then named  Merrill & Houston until 1999 when Beloit Corporation closed it's doors. The murals are a tribute to the thousands of workers employed throughout the world by this great company. 

In addition to the murals shown in the following photos the interior of the building is in various phases of restoration and renovation. This web site is presently composing a story of the renovation that will include many photos. The story is scheduled to be posted on the Internet in the next 30 days.

Thanks to Ken Hendricks the current owner of the old Beloit Corporation buildings, for his cooperation and permission to use these photos on this web site.
