Re: antique 1917 man in bathtub yard fountain

wow- this is nostalgia at it's finest. My mom still has the one I grew up hanging out around in the front yard. If you get the shower head piece back to running, I suggest you put a little dish soap in it while it runs- bubbles go all over the yard and it's an absolute riot to everyone in the neighborhood! Unfortunately hers has started to erode, his nose is missing and he no longer operates. I miss those days!!
