Eye Can See Now - Muffler Man Indian

A very buff giant stands atop the Midwest Eye Clinic at 6254 S. Pulaski Road, Chicago. Is he giving the sign of peace or halting traffic?

Most everything has been said about this fellow, but there still wasn't a photo...so I felt compelled to post one!

Eye Care Indian

..from last visit the Indian looks new and updated. If I recall from a previous visit he did not have glasses on. Now he does, and also a new sign stating "Eye Can See Now." His eyes are a bright white -- like something out of the Twilight Zone.
