Possibly dating back to the 50s or 60s, this statue has stayed the test of time. Wearing his battlescars confidently, small dings and scuffs as seen in the photos, he is full of character and personifies the wisdom that only age and experience can bring.
Note: There is a repair on the right ear as seen in the second to last photo.
