The weather vane, which dates back to the 20th century and specifically the 1930s and 1940s, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States. The Indian figure depicted in the weather vane is adorned with intricate feather headdresses and a traditional loincloth, reflecting the indigenous peoples' connection to nature and their deep-rooted traditions.
