You are very definitely on to something, :wink: :wink:

...and if that is part of a bronze statue, judging from the patina, I'd say it was pretty old, kind
of like the statue of Alice-in-Wonderland that is along the Fifth Avenue side of Central Park. Somehow , it reminds me of the Mad Hatter's jacket in that ensemble, though I haven't seen it for decades.

Oh. Wait. Hey, are you saying I am "onto something" or "on something" ??!!! :mrgreen:

I believe you are Murph (thanks to Chucks enlargemetn.)

That's a relatively modern jacket, maybe a two button blazer? Looked directly at Churchill, Henry Ford, Edsel Ford, Gerald Ford, Walt Disney, ...

Then I tried looking for variations on "a bronze statue of a man wearing a jacket" and the only ones "close" are related to NFL coaches/stars.

Maybe it's a movie prop?

Maybe it's a two button vest?

I tried "Woman wearing a coat."

Still looking. I am surprised how many women have been bronzed.

I had to pick cars, traffic lights and bicycles from these images before I was able to post the bronze of two old people.
