ive never seen a liverbird or any other bird in the top of an ionic cap before. This is the top of a column and ive never seen that style before. can anybody tell me where it is? id love to go see this.
Im also tempted to now make a liverbird. Ill ask my old man and grandad if they ever had to make a liverbird or do some restoration on one, if so there may be a mould lying aroind :)
Hi Mike
It's in Castle St - it's the boutique hotel.
I'm in town with hubby this afternoon so I'll get a larger pic for you. :PDT11
hee hee, it looks like that Liver Bird is exposing itself and saying,"Look at me!"
This crowned bird is atop the Sailors Home Gates in Smethwick, W Midlands... it looks very lonely !
and this one guarding the new eggs and chicks in the Womens Hospital
the birds are actually on the old bank I think the upper floors are part of new hotel, but not sure.
when you go to see them Mike take binos! they are up at the top by the small windows.

Hi All
A Christmas present to myself, purchased on ebay. I even sent myself a Christmas card. And you thought you were a sad case. . .

Bronze commemorative medal marking the visit of Edwin Thompson, Lord Mayor of Liverpool, to New York City, May 4-12, 1931. Diameter: 46 x 38mm (approx. 2" high by 1 1/4" wide) Weight: 20 g.
Reverse inscriptions read: TO COMMEMORATE / THE VISIT OF THE RT HON / THE LORD MAYOR / OF / LIVERPOOL / EDWIN THOMPSON / TO / HIS HONOUR THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK CITY / THE HONOURABLE / JAMES J. WALKER MAY 4th-12th 1931
The Mayor of New York, Jimmy Walker (1881-1946), mayor during the Jazz Age, presided over a corrupt administration. He was quite a character and was nicknamed "Beau James." You can read about him here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Walker
An article in Time magazine on the administration of Herbert Hoover said that Lord Mayor Edwin Thompson spoke out of turn while he was at a dinner in New York City, revealing something of what President Hoover had said to him at the White House about the economic situation.
Excellent Chris :PDT11
Nice item to have!
