Mykola’s Krupavicius Gravesite. Saint Casimir Cemetery - Chicago Illinois.
This all welded steel structure marks the grave of Mykola’s Krupavicius - (1885-1970). All the letters that are inside the arc shaped structure are welded to hollow steel tubes which are welded in place between each piece of vertical square tube.
The stone carving up at the top is bolted to a steel plate that rests on either 6 or 8 horizontal square tubes. The base of the structure has more letters that may have threaded studs welded on the backside so they could be bolted down.
I am also not sure if the entire structure was ever painted. There is no evidence of any paint. The structure is rusty. The letters inside the arc show faded & worn paint as does part of the base under the individual letters.

FDA’s campaign against rats beginning in the 1952 was part of a larger effort to clean up the nation’s filthy grains, flour, and baked goods. By the end of the campaign almost every farm had been forced to replace their old wooden grain silos and replace them modern steel structures. This lecture to school students certainly captured their attention.
