November's Historic Artifact of the Month, a "Hooley Pictogram", sponsored by The Peoples Savings Bank.

​Chester Hooley was born in Champaign County in 1899. He worked as a sign painter and later worked with watercolors. In his correspondence with friends he would send what he called a "Hooley Pictogram." A painting on the envelope containing his letters. His sense of humor can be seen in this pictogram!

The Champaign County Historical Society  Museum is opening an exhibit of Hooley's work on Decemeber 8, 2022.
