I noticed weathering on the back of the devil’s head, where the wear has revealed the hollow portion inside; however, this is not visible when the piece is installed. There is a drilled hole through the foot where the original post once secured the weathervane to its perch, and there is some slight rusting present, which is expected for a piece of this age and only enhances its character. less
