OLD SLEEPING BLACK DUCK DECOY ~DON YUILL ~CANADA CARVER
(Item: YUILL SLEEPER DECOY)

This hollow body black duck by Don Yuill was purchased a few years ago from a collector in Toronto who was a friend of Mr. Yuill. This duck has tack eyes and a nail through the bill to hold the head in place. The bottom has been tacked on, as pictured. There is some old shot that rattles inside of body, though the are no holes in this decoy.  The decoy comes with a string and an old rusty lock used for the weight. There is minor paint loss on the tail and a couple of scuffs on the body. There is an unusual tree design on the bottom with green and yellow paint, as pictured. There is also remnants of a paper sticker left on the bottom. The paint on top is original, but we are unsure whether the bottom paint is original.
The age is unknown, but it was made within the last forty years.
A beautifully carved decoy of a sleeping duck carved by a talented carver.
