Glenn Goode's People - Big John 2 - Gainesville
Big John No. 2 is a fiberglass statue he was once used as a grocery clerk advertised Big John food stores.
He was erected about the same time as his “brother” Big John No.1
Next to Big John No.2 stand another Big John No.2, a Cowboy Muffler Man, a Muffler Man and an Uniroyal Gal. All together there are called Glenn Goodes Big People.
Glenn Goode passed away in March 2015. His collection remains standing on the front lawn of his sandblasting business.
In Glenns will is written that the five fiberglass figures should remain in place for at least five years before they might be sold.
That remains to be seen. March 2020 is now.
