Harold A. Johnson was photographed on January 13, 1943, while working on the large mural that he was commissioned to paint for the Bethel Pentecostal Church at 1101 South J Street. Standing next to him is the church's minister, Rev. John W. Moseid. The painting was to be unveiled during a special service on Sunday evening, January 16, 1943. Mr. Johnson, who specialized in sacred pictures, and Edwin J. Richardson opened a studio at 951 Market Street in April of 1944. (T. Times 1/16/1943 p.7 & TNT 4/23/1944 p.A-6)
