Up for consideration is vintage wooden duck decoy by noted World Championship
carver competitor Alfred Ponte. This bird is incredible in quality and realism. It measures 7.25 inches in length and sports artist's burn mark and dedication to Jean & Harry Toms 5-30-78. Vintage Competition carved birds are seemingly underated in value and quality in the collecting world...but so were decoys in general at one time. As the market shifts expands and more interest grows into these early competition exhibition quality birds so will there value. Collectors and investors are hedging on the markets and future interests it is just a matter of time before as this market blows up. If you have any questions or something to share...please message me. Buyer pays shipping. Biographical information: In 1997 Alfred Ponte one first place for Wood Duck World Championship carving competition as an Amateur. He also produced a book with patterns he developed for carvers "26 realistic Patterns Alfred M. Ponte.Warmest Regards,JohnnyJohnnyCrystal Est. 1987
