I am now, thanks for informing me. Some of the private collections should be loaned to a museum for an exhibit!

I just visited your site to try to find out which manhole cover it is! Fascinating stuff.

What a pleasure to see someone else interested in these cast iron medallions. There is one like this that I point out on my Manhole Cover tour through Sidetour.com, which runs from the meat packing district to Union Sq along 14th and 13th Streets. Unfortunately it has mostly been covered over by concrete and asphalt but it is still a wonderful discovery. Hope you can join me on October 27 or November 10 for a visit.
