<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluumz, post: 10579545, member: 649&quot;]I just found <a href="https://www.antiquesboutique.com/antique-treen/american-carved-wooden-duck-decoy-early-mid-20th-century-folk-art/itm205700" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquesboutique.com/antique-treen/american-carved-wooden-duck-decoy-early-mid-20th-century-folk-art/itm205700" rel="nofollow">THIS</a> one which has the same type of wooden thing-y on the bottom and the two nails holding it in even look the same! It&#039;s also carved in a similarly chiseled-looking way. Unfortunately the seller didn&#039;t state any info other than &quot;early- to mid-20th century&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: And <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/4298103613/vintage-primitive-hand-carved-wooden?show_sold_out_detail=1&amp;ref=nla_listing_details" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/4298103613/vintage-primitive-hand-carved-wooden?show_sold_out_detail=1&amp;ref=nla_listing_details" rel="nofollow">THIS</a> one.</p><p>I&#039;m beginning to wonder if these are reproductions made to look old as decor.</p><p>Still, that would be fine, I paid peanuts and I&#039;m only using it for display.</p><p>I&#039;ve joined a Facebook decoy group and have submitted my photos and inquiry to them. We&#039;ll see...</p><p>BTW, google says duck decoys were traditionally made from white pine, white cedar, balsa, and tupelo... with white cedar being the wood of choice. I&#039;d think that a decor repro maker wouldn&#039;t have bothered with using cedar, like this one is made from...?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
