    Description

    I am the granddaughter of the famous gunmaker Harry Sanford. This duck decoy came out of his home after his death. It is an excellent collectors piece with rare glass eyes. Handmade, guaranteed old, original duck decoy used for hunting.  Will include letter of provenance if requested. Dad brought home many items from his gun shop prior to him inventing the .44 AutoMag.  Some made the cut by mom and some did.  She kept this as part of her decorating since Harry passed.
