NEW PHILADELPHIA, OHIO

N 40° 29.383 / W 081° 26.705

Copyright version 1920, sheet bronze.

Smithsonian Art Inventory Control Number: 47260084.
Picture
On Tuscarawas County Courthouse Square.
Picture
The inscription on a plaque on the front of the base reads:
(Below Eagle)

IN MEMORY OF
THE MEN AND WOMEN
OF TUSCARAWAS COUNTY
WHO SERVED THEIR COUNTRY
IN THE WORLD WAR


ERECTED 1929
Picture
Dedicated November 11, 1929 under the sponsorship of the New Philadelphia American Legion post in a celebration including a parade, drum and bugle corps, the high school band, fireworks, appropriate dedicatory remarks Refreshments were served afterwards the dedication and a large banquet was held at the First Presbyterian Church that evening.

The Doughboy’s bayonet was lost at some point, but has been replaced, and the sculpture is in relatively good condition in comparison to other Doughboys around the country.

The building shown in the photograph is the Courthouse Annex, rather than the Courthouse, which is to the left and behind the Doughboy, but not visible. Courthouse Square also contains memorials to those who served in other wars, the largest of which is a very impressive and tall Civil War monument.
