    Nice duck....likely used.
    The crack's bad......& you'll need a specialist to know it the art work & carving can be linked to a carver.. IMHO.

    Yeah, not in the best condition but I'm finding some pretty beat up decoys that sold for decent amounts.
    Any good places online I can ask?

    You could ask Eldred's Auction house on Cape Cod...... info@eldreds.com might at least find out if they think it's anyone with a 'name'! There is also Decoys, Inc. Unlimited, which specializes in decoys....maybe a better choice....email address: theodores.harmon@comcast.net .....good luck!!!!

    Thanks. I'll email them. Will keep you posted but I doubt there is any significant value in the duck.

    At one point I wanted to learn more about decoys but never found time. There are hundreds of them in the local antiques malls. Too much work to check every single one. Bought this one because it was cheap and I like it in a way.
