> Bruce seems to remember there was a sculpture on top of the column on the right side of the Steinbarg monument. For mee too, it seems something is missing there, but I don't know. Is anybody of you, who remembers and/or has an older picture?

No, there was nothing on the column. This is the original Kolnik's design:

Text of the epitaph (from the "Hammer and iron" fable):

טרויעריק, קינדער, אויף דער וועלט דער ברייטער גראמער
ביטער! מיט א משל כאטש זיך קוויקן לאמיר

(It is sad, children, in this wide giant world.
It is bitter! Let's at least enjoy a fable)
