Saturday Stumper #10

Saturday Stumper #10
On the occasional Saturday I  feature an obscure architectural element found in the city, to see if someone can figure out where it is. Buffalo is filled will all sorts of obscure architectural details and hidden items if interest. 

There are no clues - just a photo depicting the item. I'm sure that there are a lot of BRO readers out there who have scoured the city and have seen just about all that there is to see. Others might learn about some real treasures found in the most unlikely places. Either way, I'll keep mixing it up from week to week to keep you guessing... hopefully.

Due to readers' request, the answer will be given on Monday, although the stumper series has proven that the readership is spot on with their guesswork so far.

BTW, some very interesting background info on Oliver Gear at the links below. They even use equipment from Gleason Works, made in my old 'hood back in Ra Cha Cha.
