The November “Where Is This” photo by Carolina Country’s Warren Kessler features the Randolph Memories Mural in downtown Asheboro, at 100 South Fayetteville Street. Originally designed by Dwight Holland and painted by local artists in 1977, artist Susan Harrell restored the mural in 2009. The artwork features actual townspeople milling around local businesses in this Randolph County town, such as the PH Morris General Merchandise store, the Asheboro Telephone Company and the Emporium circa early 1900s. Reader Carol Purvis adds that the black door on the right lead into a beauty shop in the 1950s. Her mother worked there before opening her own shop, Purvis Beauty Shop. The winning entry chosen at random from all correct submissions came from Audrey Fenech of Asheboro, a Randolph EMC member.
