Barre City, Vermont Firehouse Weathervane. The Barre Firehouse Weathervane is a hammered cooper weathervane that used to sit atop the Firehouse in Barre, Vermont. Created in 1904, the weathervane depicts a “flying team” of horses pulling a hook and ladder wagon. It is currently displayed in the Vermont History Center also in downtown Barre.
The weather vane is a retired Douglas DC-3 CF-CPY atop a swiveling support. Located at the Yukon Transportation Museum [18] beside Whitehorse International Airport, the weather vane is used by pilots to determine wind direction, used as a landmark by tourists and enjoyed by locals. The weather vane only requires a 5 knot wind to rotate. [19]
Faneuil Hall weathervane. Deacon Shem Drowne (December 4, 1683 – January 13, 1774) was a colonial coppersmith and tinplate worker in Boston, Massachusetts, and was America's first documented weathervane maker. He is most famous for the grasshopper weathervane atop of Faneuil Hall, well known as a symbol of Boston.
The first weathervanes were made out of tin or wood, with oak or ash-tree traditionally used for the overall frame, and linden or willow for open-cut carvings. The size (114– 116 cm long without a flag and 40–45 cm height) and material of a weathervane has remained largely the same since then.
