Price $27.95 SB

For the first time in 10 years, collectors of antique bird decoys and duck calls are able to enjoy a totally updated, revised, and expanded edition of the late Carl F. Luckey’s, Collecting Antique Bird Decoys and Duck Calls. Hundreds of pages with new information and new photos have been added to this legendary must-have collectible reference guide which offers tips on identifying antique decoys and forgeries and fakes, techniques for restoration and repairs, a guide to “The Schools of Carvers,” and much more.

This updated edition provides history and current pricing of the prominent duck and goose hunting decoys used over the past century-plus, including both hand-carved and factory models. Coverage of “modern” decoys—made in the past 50 years, has been added, plus information about duck and goose calls. Also new is a chapter on advertising of decoys and hunting memorabilia from the 1920s through 1950s and an interview with one of the most prominent decoy collectors.
