This is a statue of post office mail man created by Steward Johnson that is located in Ridgewood, NJ upon further research of the statues origins I’ve come to understand that there are multiple types of these statues not just the mail man scattered across numerous memorials, exhibitions of new arts, public parks, and government buildings or resource centers. It’s very interesting to me because these statues are meant to almost serve a better cultural understanding of that areas main specialty. It’s a learning experience while giving a look at something memorialized to keep that memory in one spot. For example this mail man is in front of the post office on the main road almost in the center of the busiest part of that street, I could see the connection making it known that the post office in this town is very essential to the towns history and growth.
