    Remarks: 
    The figures were sculpted in Pietrasanta, Italy by the Enrico Pandolfine Group. Cost of the sculpture was $1,928.50. Funds for the sculpture were given by Miss Frances Landwerlen in memory of Louis and Monica Landwerlen. The sculpture was referred to in early correspondence as "The Fatima Group". Because the sculpture of Mary does not depict her as she appeared at Fatima, it was later referred to by the title "Immaculate Heart of Mary", by which name it is still popularly known. IAS files contain copy of related correspondence.
