Ontario. C. 1950. The decoys are both "working" decoys. They are a very unusual and pleasing folk art form, especially the heads. These were originally found in a small rig of decoys, including Buffleheads, all by the same maker (unknown for these pieces).

Neck has a repair. Drake: Original paint with some paint loss and wear from hunting use. Three piece body with minor body seam separation otherwise structurally good. Eye is painted.
