Paul Brooke and a team of sculptors paid homage to the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. The scupltures are made of butter."The space suits were a real challenge, to be honest. It's easy to sculpt things that you know. When you sculpt a human being you memorize it, so this was a challenge," Alexander Balz, one of the artists involved in the project, told CNN affiliate NBC4 WCMH-TV.
The beloved local tradition began with a focus on sculpting a cow and calf that honored the dairy industry in the state, so of course two striking Ohioan cows are also present in this year's display case. The cow and calf tradition dates back 116 years to 1903.For the first time, the cows are sporting ear tags frequently seen on the real-life animals. On one the word"Apollo" has been engraved, and on the other the number"11.
