L. Travers (born Helen Lyndon Goff aka Pamela Lyndon Travers) and originally published in 1934 with illustrations by Mary Shepard. Focusing on a magical nanny who is, appropriate for weathervane purposes, blown in by a windstorm. She has arrived to care for the two Banks children at Number Seventeen Cherry-Tree Lane in London, England. Mary Poppins and the children have a series of wonderful adventures as she gently teaches them important lessons about life. Following are an assortment of weathervane commissions using mainly people, whether real or fictitious as the main figure. They have all been exclusively designed and cut by hand and are consequently all one-off weathervane commissions. They are not mass produced, computerised, off the shelf, metal ‘stamped out’ weathervanes, nor as our Americans friends would say, - ‘Cookie-Cut’.

Mary Poppins is also the subject of a classic movie made by Walt Disney in 1964 and numerous musical theater productions. Many of the songs from the musical have become famous in their own right including Chim Chim Cheree, Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, A Spoonful of Sugar, and Feed the Birds (Tuppence a Bag). Please note: All free standing weathervanes come complete with an integrated 15cm length four-pronged ground spike for stability. If your ground is a little soft, the base can easily be ground anchored or cemented into position where additional support is required. Yet, although it’s a throwaway children’s movie, many wouldn’t consider Mary Poppins to be a guilty pleasure; indeed, for Eggers, there is one movie that he boldly calls his definitive secret cinematic love.Let us know which item you are returning, either by the SKU code or product name and the reason why The following examples of previous commissions show signs as well as weathervanes because the main design elements between the two are almost always interchangeable, i.e. sign designs can be used as weathervanes and weathervane designs can be used as signs. For outdoor items, weathering may occur over time as the item is exposed to wind, rain and other natural elements. Please see our product maintenance guidesto help you protect your product. Naming a number of celebrated foreign filmmakers, including Ingmar Bergman and Andrei Tarkovsky, Eggers also selects Fanny and Alexander and Andrei Rublev. Heavily inspired by both filmmakers, speaking about both movies, he notes: “But the last act, or the last movement of Andrei Rublev is probably just the best thing in cinema history. That bell casting sequence is just so powerful. In some ways, it’s kind of the same thing that Fanny and Alexander does where you’re not even sure who Andrei Rublev is for quite a while the first time you watch the movie”.
