Commemorative Poster Unveiled…..Congratulations go to Ed Ailor whose
photograph titled Booches-1884 has been unveiled as the 2011 Columbia
Commemorative Poster. The work was selected from 171 images submitted by
28 Missouri artists through a jury process. Ailor, born in Cape
Girardeau, Mo., spent most of his 43 years in town practicing medicine.
In 2005 he and his son formed Ailor Fine Art Photography (AFAP). Ailor
says, “When I think of landmarks in and around Columbia one of the
many that come to mind is Booches.” The 2011 Columbia Commemorative
Poster can be purchased at Deck the Walls in the Columbia Mall and at
1305 Grindstone Parkway, or at the city’s OCA, 1 S. 7th Street.
