Architect John Crace of WHW Group did the original cartoon for this figure. Rod Kinnear, MT&T’s repair person in the Middle Musquodoboit area, cheerfully provided details about how he and his colleagues dress for work. This soft sculpture will always be “Rod the Repairman” to me. Telephone users can feel secure in the knowledge that Rod is on duty 24 hours every day.
