In 1953,
the American Hereford Association placed a fiberglass statue of a
bull on a 90-foot pylon at its headquarters at 715 Kirk Drive, with
President Dwight D. Eisenhower presiding. The bull was nicknamed
"Bob" by locals, a name derived from the acronym created by the
phrase "bull on building."
"Bob" was dedicated during the opening of a new headquarters on
Quality Hill in Kansas City overlooking the stockyards and the West
Bottoms. The headquarters at 715 Kirk Drive included a famous
restaurant but its most distinctive feature was the fiberglass
statue of a Hereford bull on a 90-foot pylon which became a
landmark.
In 1995 the American Hereford Association merged with the American
Polled Hereford Association. In 1997, the Association moved a few
way blocks away to 1501 Wyandotte and its headquarters were sold to
the HNTB architecture firm which took down the bull. In 2002 the
bull was restored to a 60-foot pylon across I-35 in Mulkey
Square.
It either was loved as an icon or reviled as kitsch detracting from
the city's beauty. The statue's sculptor was Paul Decker with
Rochetti and Parzini of New York City, and was manufactured at the
Colonial Plastic Corporation of Newark, New Jersey.
Your are looking for a camouflaged match stick container resting
under his watchful gaze.
