‘Thar She Blows’ a fabulous rare shop/trade sign of great scale, hand made in riveted zinc and hand painted. This superb piece sits on an iron stand and would have spun outside of a shop, to draw in the customers. French and dating to the early 20th century, it is in original untouched condition, with a few small dents, and lost paint patina that you would expect from decades blowing in the wind. An absolutely captivating piece of marine and advertising memorabilia. Length 135cm x Width of Tail 55cm Height on stand 85.5cm Width of body 13cm Stand Height 33.5cm.
