Elephant with a Cane Sculpture Signed and Dated 1984
About the Item
This whimsical sculpture of a lame elephant in red, white and blue colors is signed and dated 3/84. We cannot make out the signature but it looked like Red Grooms. We had the gallery who represents him contact him and this is not his work, however they even admitted it is in his style. It is Papier Mache over some heavy metal like iron. Perhaps someone will recognize the artist, as the signature is clearly pictured.

A great bronze wonderfully patinated and mounted on a slate base. It is signed Schumacher and dated 1989. We were lucky to acquire a number of this artist's works.
From a 2012 article the following provides some insight into the artist:
Gloucester TWP, Camden County College’s Marlin Gallery will present works by the late Cherry Hill sculptor Frederick Schumm in the show “Retrospective” starting March 21.
