St. Joseph the Provider

I came across this during my visit to the Mazzolini Artcraft Company. The model (top left) was just laying against the wall in the basement.  It’s signed “S.A. Rebeck” below the foot (bottom).  John Mazzolini said that this was sculpted for St. Vincent’s Charity Hospital, Cleveland, OH in the fifties or sixties.  It is hanging above one of the outside entrances of the hospital and appears to be aluminum about 5 inches thick (top left and bottom by Dave Rebeck).
