Artist, Paul Leduc, says this rhino was made from VW bug fenders, doors, hoods,and trunks.
The legs are school fire extinguisher's and the inner structure is chrome hoops from
clothing racks grabbed from the dumpster of a closing K-Mart off Meridian Ave.
The Rhino was created circa 1996 on consignment at what was an artist co-op.
After the co-op went out of business the rhino was left and became a mascot of sorts.
