  9. He's pretty pristine seeing he has probably been waiting for some time.

  10. Rarely is there a public sculpture that features a casually posed figure dressed in a suit. Quite a contrast.

  12. A very realistic sculpture. That hat dates it, though, doesn't it!? :-)
    It must go back to the 1950s.

  13. I believe it was actually made for the Bicentenary as the paper is dated 26 January 1988
