Old Concrete Statue Hand Fragment polar bear figurine This early 20th century trampThis is the smaller of two old concrete sculpture fragments I found together in Maine, I think from different statues as the concrete feels different between the two and this one shows a steel rather than iron structure inside. And how to resist an old concrete hand, missing fingers and all!? I might keep this one on the desk topping a pile of papers perhaps bills to be paid, which it suggests it might take care of in one's absence! 7 3 8" x 3 1 8" x
