This replica souvenir was made of Steel and finished in a copper patina.
I am told these wonderful copies are often required product from students of architecture and especially apprentice machinists.
A great many of them have been produced that are essentially one of a kind art objects.
For me the models are the epitome of Midcentury Design.
