Arnold Schwarzennger takes some time to autograph a few posters for Artist Ralph Crawford’s family members during his visit Wednesday in Lewiston. A 9-foot-tall statue depicting Schwarzenegger at the height of his bodybuilding career has received a final critique by the former Mr. Universe before being sent for bronzing. The former California governor visited Lewiston to suggest a few modifications to the clay sculpture. It’s destined to stand outside his childhood home, which is now a museum in Thal, Austria.
