Carved Cherub from Queen of Angels.

I salvaged this from the vestibule of Queen of Angels Church. Originally known as St. Peter's German R.C. Church. Carved of oak it probably dates from circa 1 860. As Queen of Angels it was the preeminent African-American Catholic Church. The building now sits in ruins awaiting demolition.
