They are indicative of the Zoglmanns' Austro-Hungarian heritage. It is attributed to F. Bohn, who signed one of the other three donated murals. The donor's German born grandfather Wolfgang owned and operated Zoglmann's Barroom Hotel until his death in 1949. Afterwards, the bar was operated by Frances and Loretta Zoglmann until 1965 and has passed hands several times since
