RAPID CITY STATUES

Rapid City SD downtown has bronze (or brass?) statuary on lots of street corners. Some intersections have statues on all four corners!  Most are of U. S. Presidents. There are similar statues in the downtown areas of Grand Junction CO and Golden CO (home of the big Coors brewery). One I did not photograph  was of Harry Truman holding up the front page of the Chicago Tribune with the headline in giant type “DEWEY WINS”.
