Cow
Middlebush, NJ
2007: 2009:
This Cow has either had the horns removed remove or never had them. The statue was brown and white, then was painted black and white, and then back to brown and white. Sometime between 2007 and 2009, this cow was repainted black and white. In the 1960s, the statue was taken to parades and store openings to promote the Cream O'Land Dairy. When it was not on the road, it was located at the dairy's store. The store also had a 10-foot-tall rotating milk bottle. When Cream O'Land's building was demolished in the late 1970s or early 1980s, this statue was moved to this dairy farm. It was subjected to pranks and being knocked over. Today, it stands way back in the paddock with live cows. [map]

Turkey Hill Cow
Paradise, PA
 Turkey Hill Cow
Ocean City, MD
The Turkey Hill Cow is a mobile exhibit which has been traveling around Pennsylvania and beyond since 1967. The statue was parked in front of Sweets for Sweeties when I saw it in 2006. In 2009, I spotted the statue at the Convention and Visitors Center in Ocean City. I think this was the same statue that I saw in Pennsylvania. Turkey Hill now has three traveling cows but it sounds like the other two are red and white.

 Cow
Wilkes-Barre, PA
The Cow in Clarion stands at the former George Farms dairy farm. For more, see this website. [map]

The Cow in Wilkes-Barre previously stood in front of Gorman's Dairy. The statue seems to be at the same location now but the Dairy building is gone. The cow is or was nicknamed "Dinah Three-O-Ninah", a reference to her location on Route 309. The cow was multi-colored for several years but was repainted back to its original brown and white around 2002. Since these photos from 2004, development has sprung up around the car. She is holding her ground behind a white fence. [map]
