Excerpt:
Bud Gussel, owner of grocery distributor Holiday Wholesale, has an original painting of a pair of passenger pigeons painted by Owen Gromme in 1986 at Gussel’s request. The painting has hung in Gussel’s office ever since, but now Gussel is offering free copies of the painting to schools and libraries throughout the state.
The best article I've ever read about the passenger pigeon is found in the April 1961 edition of American Heritage, "The Passing of the Passenger Pigeon".
