[QUOTE="Stormy, post: 280165, member: 4920"]Update : Here is an email I received about this weathervane poster. Hi Stormy, Our Corporate Archives staff and Museum staff will do some checking to see if they can track down when this poster was produced. Here is a link to information about the weathervane featured on the poster: [URL]http://emuseum.history.org/view/objects/asitem/search@/0?t:state:flow=31719ae1-14fa-4aae-ab4f-31ae6f104494[/URL] I looked up the exhibit history for the weathervane and it has been on exhibit three times. None of the exhibits were titled "Nineteenth Century American Weathervanes," although there is a notation in the object record re an unnamed traveling exhibition organized by the AARFAM in cooperation with the American Federation of the Arts, New York, NY, April 22, 1959-December 31, 1961. The poster could have also been a generic one sold in the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum shop. I hope to be back in touch if we can track down more specifics about the poster.
