Cuspidor's Founding Father

Here is the magnificent bronze statue of Alonzo Phleming, the first European to set foot in the Cuspidor Valley.  An early Mountain Man, trapper and explorer he was famed for inventing the world's first collapsible, travelling spittoon, in honour of which he named the valley "Cuspidor"

The statue will take pride of place in front of the City Hall, high on the bluff where he will look out over the valley.

In reality he needs to be bronze patinated as he's a bit gold at the moment.
