J. Howard McGregor made numerous life-sized busts of prehistoric humans, most of which found their way into museum displays. Messmore & Damon’s wax caveman heads (from “The World a Million Years Ago“) arrived with full bodies — that cracked and split apart during a Southern California heat wave).

Also, the head of one of those Messmore & Damon “prehistoric people.”
