Doors to the Senate Chamber, Nebraska State Capitol Building. Lee Lawrie, C. 1932. Shortly after the Capitol was completed, the Nebraska Legislature became the nation's first, and only, Unicameral, as a part of political reforms spearheaded by populist George W. Norris. The doors weigh about a ton.

Virtual restoration, colors enhanced.
