Offered is
an antique shorebird decoy with original paint on a paper stock that was
unbelievably glued to a wooden body! The paint is so good I believe (50 years’
experience) that it is original to the bird even though I can find no data to substantiate
such a process. So, I’m asking the marketplace to be the judge. It is fresh to
the market from a local New Hampshire estate. Original tack eyes with original
beak. Stand contemporary. 10.5” long X 6” tall (w/o stand) with a 2.75” width.

1,
SHIPPING IS A GUESS, SO PLEASE DON’T PAY UNTIL I SEND THE INVOICE!!!!! We only
charge shipping and insurance charges as outlined by the perspective carriers,
NO additional charges are added. Insurance is required and will be
included in the final invoice at actual cost. Because of eBay’s recent changes,
it is NOT POSSIBLE to put firm insurance fees until after the auction. The
ultimate insurance cost will depend on the hammer price so disregard any
automated invoices that arrive at sales end. Please do not Pre-pay, seller will
invoice directly to buyer following auction’s end.

We will generally ship (into the shipping system) within 1-2 days of payment
receipt via eBay along with a confirmed address. Non-guaranteed funds could
take longer. Plus, if we have materially erred in the description, we will be
happy to discuss a return (within 48 hours of item receipt), otherwise all
sales are final.
4, If damage occurs during
shipping, I will need photos of the box it was shipped in and photos of the
items damage so that claims can be started and processed. –thank you.
