Vtg Molded Copper Flying Goose Weathervane - A folk-style weather vane featuring a hollow-bodied topper in the form of a flying goose. The goose is constructed from two sheets of molded copper joined at the seams. The topper is mounted on a central vertical metal rod that includes a spherical spacer and a cross-arm set of cast metal directional indicators for North, South, East, and West. The directionals are designed with a classic serif typeface. Materials used in the construction include a copper topper, likely brass or bronze for the cast directional arms and spacer, and a wrought iron or steel mounting rod. A pink adhesive label marked with the number 63 is attached to the neck of the goose, and a white paper tag is tied to the directional assembly. No maker marks, signatures, or factory stamps are visible on the metal components.
