Alain MacDonald Drake Goldeneye Wall Plaque
Alain MacDonald,Riqaud,Quebec
This is a rare Drake Goldeneye wall placque by the late Alain MacDonald,(1886-1961). This will be sold as seen or as a set of all 8. Please ask for the collection price! Original paint as well as condition, Ca. 1925-1930. A wonderful attribute of this carving is the head is turned out. This gave MacDonald the unique ability to create a full, perfectly carved bill for a overall, graceful and realistic look. Carving retains the original glass eyes. A close look shows the artistic oil feather blending technique of the carver to create some of the best carvings to ever come from Quebec! For a reference please see the book by Michel Be'lisle, "Waterfowl Decoys Of The Montreal Region", page 61 from the Montreal Museum collection. Collectors who have seen this set of eight agree these are rare and report they have never seen a collection of this quality and quantity.

Charles Schoenheider Sr. Canada Goose Head
Charles Schoenheider Sr.,Peoria,IL.,MW 17
This offering is a Canada Goose head made by Charles Schoenheider Senior of Peoria,Illinois,(1854-1924). Until my trip to the Midwest Decoy collectors show recently, it was thought that Mr. Schoenheider died in 44 or some thought 34. However, after I had a meeting with his family, it is now known that he actually died in 1924, making this as well as all as Schoenheider Sr. decoys older that was once thought and probably as such, generally more valuable.

This is a beautiful wooden solid working decoy by the well documented, late Ken Anger (1905-1961), from Dunnville,Ontario,Canada. Anger decoys in this condition are prized by investment quality decoy collectors from around the world. This is an opportunity to own one of Angers early 1940's treasures. Mr Anger was known as the rasp master. The man I got this decoy from, is in his late 80's and he remembers being with his Dad when they went to Ken's house to buy this and 12 other Mallards. This decoy was hunted over and retired in the 60's and brought into his home with great pride.This is an early example. The paint is 100% original as well as the condition. Measurements are approx. 16" long by 6" in height. Decoy retains the original glass eyes.
