Buffalo head. Symbols of a glorious past join the scrap for freedom. This giant buffalo head is being disposed of as scrap to aid the war effort. The Union Pacific Railroad has notified the Industrial Salvage Section of the War Production (WPB) Board Bureau of Industrial Conservation. It was erected on the road's Missouri River Bridge in 1888 to symbolize the wildness of the Western plains. The weight of the copper bronze buffalo head is estimated to be 2400 pounds, not including 1000 pounds of steel in the framework. It is seven feet six inches high, six feet wide and four feet nine inches thick
