A giant statue of Uncle Sam, in the colloquial Folk Art tradition of repurposed sheet metal and ductwork. This monumental piece of iconic Americana, standing at an imposing height of 8 and a half feet tall, has an even rarer trait, passed along from the era of popular engineering: it is mechatronic, with arms that rotate and a bowtie that spins along with the bulbs that light up when plugged in. It also has something resembling a built-in speaker, though internal hardware and operation has not been extensively tested.

The dimensions are 103 in x 60 in x 39 in. Condition is good for its age, as is. Paint is chipped and worn, metal has some surface wear and dents. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
