I really didn't know what this F&S item was when I bought it, being
made out of wood I knew it couldn't go on the outside of a building.
An alert collector told me "It's a mold, you lay it down in soft
sand/clay and make an impression that is then filled with bronze."
That made sense to me, and after asking around and showing the picture
to a few people at the last ECBA show I was able to not only verify
that it was a mold, but I located two collectors that have the huge
bronze emblem in their collections! One is currently being used as
a coffee table! This mold is 26" in diameter and is 2" thick. It is
made out of pressed board and strips of oak but the letters are bronze.
I have a real challange trying to find the missing "R" and "W", but
who knows, maybe one of you can help.
