Description:
[San Francisco]: n.p., 1967. Photograph. 8x10 b&w publicity photo of the artist standing beside his "Penguins Prayer" sculpture with a caption label affixed to back and wrapping over to front. The photo is likely just after the sculpture had been moved to the Center in 1967, certainly no later than 1970 when Bufano died. The sculpture was originally created in 1969 with WPA funding. No photographer noted.
