OHIO
Ohio has more Viquesney Doughboy statues than any other state. There are twelve signed copies of "The Spirit of the American Doughboy", one copy-after (made from Viquesney's original molds) at Blue Ash (Cincinnati) signed by George F. Yostel, and one more signed Viquesney Doughboy of a different design at Lakemore. The twelve signed copies of "The Spirit of the American Doughboy" stand at Akron, Crooksville, Fostoria, Gallipolis, Marion, Newark, New Philadelphia, St. Bernard, Swanton, Warren, Woodville, and Zanesville. The St. Bernard statue is known locally as the Soldiers and Sailors Monument and bears the copyright of Walter Rylander, who owned the rights to Viquesney's Doughboy for four years.
