After, the business was sold and moved to Quogue, Long Island, New York, where this pair was made. The pair has been floated and hunted over in Stony Brook Harbor by Ed Moger of Centereach, L.I. (so the note that came with them says). They have a lovely painted patina, strong colors and detail work. They have some handling wear overall and to the paint on the edges of their tails, and bills. They smell like yellow pine. A beautiful Bluewing Teal Decoy pair with great patina. From the same source as the Greenwing Teal decoys currently listed. Price: $1250.00 (ref. A-31)
