Antique Questions Forum / Weather vanes... Thoughts?
« on: March 21, 2014, 08:08:44 am »
I have 3 weather vanes here to look at at if you have time. I've done some research but weather vanes seem to be reproduced even more than the door stoppers I posted about. These where collected around the 1950's and 1960's by my wife's grandparents.
The first one is total length 30" and the rooster is 12" wide x 14" tall

Thanks for that info. Any idea of fair market on these? I am seeing prices all over the place for these. The French Bulldog has pricing from $100 to $700. That's quite a range.

They are very smooth. I have a background in metals so pretty positive they are cast iron. My wife's grandmother and grandfather have collected antiques since the 1950s. I am doing a bit of fact finding for her now that she is looking to start selling some stuff.
I was kind of assuming that the last 2 where Hubley but I don't have much experience identifying them. The first one I just am not sure about. Especially the seem on the belly. The rabbit may even be heavier. Maybe more like 13-14lbs. And I'm not sure if it's visible in the picks but it looks to be 3 screws holding the rabit halves together.

Hello,
I have 3 door stoppers that I believe are original pieces from the early 1900s but I'm not positive. The finish work looks good ie no power tool grind marks, but I was hoping for a little more verification. Any info is greatly appreciated.
