Description: The snow sculpture’s depiction, particularly with a figure seemingly begging in "servitude" near a money sack, likely satirizes the impact of Maine’s income tax, implemented under Governor Kenneth Curtis in 1969. Curtis's tax reform was a pivotal yet controversial policy, introducing the state's first income tax to fund public education and reduce property taxes. Although Curtis left office in 1975, the income tax’s lasting impact continued to stir opinions, especially among rural communities who felt overburdened by this tax structure.Auction Policies (if applicable) The starting bid may be adjusted based on the number of watchers until an initial bid is placed.
