This picture was taken during the 1980-81 renovation, just before it reopened. We do not know if it was made for the library's 1968 or 1981 renovation. It has been suggested that the pattern in the planters is reminiscent of Lynn Ford's carvings. At some unknown time, the planter, along with several others, was put into storage because of space issues. Some of them have been moved to the library only recently for evaluation purposes. This planter is in okay condition, but it has been damaged and repaired, although without any infill. There are numerous chips.
