Book Description
DUCKS & DECOYS: If it looks like a duck, and if it walks like a duck, and if it quacks like a duck ... then it's a duck! But if it doesn't walk or quack or fly, then it's probably a duck decoy. Whether used for hunting or just collecting, duck decoys have become increasingly viewed as an important form of North American folk art. Since the 1960s, numerous collectors' organizations have been created, specialist books and magazines published, with specialist dealers, and special interest shows around the US and Canada. Record prices have been paid for duck decoys. The current world record was set when two decoys (Canada goose and a preening pintail drake) were sold for $1.13 million each on September 19, 2007. The decoys were part of a private sale of 31 decoys for $7.5 million. Enjoy looking at the beautiful photos of ducks and decoys in this book. Enjoy collecting duck decoys, too.

Book Description
Antique decoys are among the hottest collectibles in the nation right now. With prime specimens commanding prices reaching well into the six-figure range, collectors see them as both an investment and a status symbol. Everybody wants them, but few can own the real thing. Loy Harrell, one of North America's pre-eminent decoy authorities, has crossed the country to gather photographs and information on the most valuable and sought-after decoys. This full-color masterpiece displays the greatest decoys of a bygone era, tells about their history and in some cases discusses their value. One of the specimens went for more than 600,000 dollars at a Sotheby's auction. Hunting, antique and waterfowl enthusiasts will want this book not only as a display of great artwork, but also as a valuable reference tool for these American treasures.
