The L.L. Cook Co., Milwaukee, WI
This image is a photo of the life-sized statue of Will Rogers that was cast for the museum. In addition, another cast was made and sent to be displayed in Washington, DC, in the statuary hall of the Capitol Building.
There is no description on the back of this card. This image was extensively modified and retouched to remove the background and floor, as well as increase the detail in the statue.
This image likely dates from the 1940s.
