The Miss Jennie Potts Building on West King Street. |
The cornice of the building has 13 miniature lion's heads around it. Click to enlarge. |
Nearby is the 1910 Hager Building which was one of Lancaster's big department stores. |
It too has lion heads that protect the shield of the Hager family from harm or mischief. |
There are four carved stylized lion heads above the main entrance to the store. I must admit that the lion's heads do not look as threatening as most other carvings. |
Above the second floor windows of the corner building are 13 carvings which feature the above lion's head. |
At the top of the school can be seen two lion heads that decorate the main posts of the school. |
Near Lancaster's Public Library stands this building at 135 N. Duke Street which is now an office building.. |
On either side of the front door are two carved lion heads that guard the door of the 1890s Eclectic Style building. These are my favorite of all that I photographed. |
