Trolley Problem Sculpture Possibly from around 1950

 Vintage Sculpture of the "Trolley Problem" 

Highly unusual find, might be one of a kind. This is a sculpture of what I believe to be a depication of the Trolley Problem a famous philisophical question. I ran some images by an art group and was t told

"Philosophers on a trolley? Plaster cast in bentonite or silica flour for resolution. Academic whimsy, probably generated out of an Ivy League art department for a crusty old professor. Judging from the trolley age, circa 1930’s-‘50’s."

It measures 14.5 inches by 8 in by 2 inches and appears to be made of plaster weighing over 6.5 lbs
