Generally known as the greatest pitcher in the 1st half of the 20th century, Walter Johnson called Coffeyville home during the off season. Johnson pitched for the Washington Senators during his 21-year major league career. He later spent seven seasons as a manager. Johnson was one of the first five players to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Don hid his son Tim's name in this mural two times. To see Tim's name, roll mouse over mural image.
