Some bark missing - damage to the bottom where the concrete has stressed the carving.

I have removed this concrete to facilitate re-attachment of the carving.

Center is hollow, was full of decay and debris/leaves. By the nose there is wire mesh to hold the concrete/plaster repair. Leroy at OA said Shelter Isle would call them occasionally to request repairs at the site but did not want to pay for them. Not sure who did the repairs or when.

Here is the strip for the back of the tall Tiki.

Danny, Tony, where are you? Thanks Sven, would love to get copies of your pics.

My mom lived in Arcadia for 25 years. The only time I saw this place was when my sister got married at the church next to the Apartments in the early 80s.
