Grasshopper vane restored at Faneuil Hall in spring attire
The famed 147 year old copper grasshopper atop the Faneuil Hall spindle was rehung yesterday in a new spring suit. The figure, originally made by Shem Drowne in 1742 and modified by later generations, now features updated details and a brass interior housing Boston papers and city artifacts. Descendants of Drowne and visitors witnessed the reassembly as workers, aided by the sidewalk committee, resumed the familiar annual display likely to endure until its next renovation.
