Each year, we lose some good outdoor art in Winnipeg. For the year indicated, here's a
last look at, a last goodbye to some of the artwork that has disappeared that year.
1797 Portage Avenue
This Mural for Midland Appliance was one of 3 rendered by Susan Mitchell (this was the only one of the three she didn't sign and date) in the early 1990's for the three Midland Appliance locations. Each of the 3 had a varying depiction on the Lonely Maytag Repairman theme and ad campaign. We believe this one was the last of the three, but its year of rendering is unknown. Featured is Gordon Jump as Ol' Lonely, and his apprentice, we believe an actor named Paul Devine. The wall was painted over in 2009. It is unknown whether or not the artwork installation was saved.
