I was wondering if anyone had any information on "cast" collections that
may still exist around the country/world.  I have checked with the Detroit
Institute of Arts and their "cast" collection is mainly gone.  I also heard
about a travelling exhibit, but didn't get any more details.  Any info would
be greatly appreciated.  Thanks very much.
 
By the way, a "cast" collection is a collection of copies/reproductions of
famous sculptures.  These were popular around the turn of the century and
allowed people all over the world to view castings of those sculptures.
