 * From Fluty-National Register Nomination:**

Terra cotta farm animal head medallians mark both the east and west sides of the Lower Market. This one on the east is complete. This one on the west has been shorn of his ears! The paint color is the same on both sides of the market, the Sun was partially shining on the east side, but not the west. //PhotoShop// explains any other discrepancies!
