    SOS! surveyor was not able to complete the condition portion of the survey because the sculpture was fenced off due to a fire in the adjacent building. Sculpture was commissioned jointly by Girard Bank and Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company. The artist was assisted by apprentice Tom Cullen, who helped the artist grind and polish the final cast by hand.
