Caption: Bas-Relief Art Deco Ornamentation
Additional Description: This ornamentation, including a stylized version of the state coat of arms in the center, is above the side doors. On the shield of the coat of arms are symbols for agriculture (a plow), mining (a pick and shovel), manufacturing (an arm and hammer), and navigation (an anchor). The horn of plenty on the left in the coat of arms symbolizes prosperity and abundance, while the pyramid of lead ingots on the right represents mineral wealth (the gear symbol on the pyramid is not an official part of the coat of arms).
