Tallas en la Entrada de Torre O.T. Bassett

La imagen muestra la entrada a la Torre O. T. Bassett. Charles N. Bassett construyó la Torre Bassett en 1929-1930 a la memoria de su padre, Oscar T. Bassett, uno de los pioneros de El Paso quien era uno de los fundadores del primer banco de El Paso, el Banco Nacional de El Paso. Henry C. Trost recibió el encargo de diseñar el edificio. La puerta de entrada está decorada con bonitas esculturas junto con otras 5 caras. La cara en el medio, un hombre con cara redonda y calvo con bigote morsa es Henry Trost él mismo; sin embargo, existe la posibilidad de que se trate del señor Bassett. Probablemente es solo alguien calvo con cara redonda y con un gesto típico del sentido del humor de Trost.
