Bluebill Drake wooden duck decoy made by Gus Nilo, circa 1930
Decoy measures 14 inches from tip of tail to tip of bill. Body is 6 inches wide. It is structurally very sound.

Made out of cedar wood. Has the original glass eyes and traces of overpaint with traces of repaint. Initials "GK" branded on bottom. Some flaws, such as knots on bottom of tail, side and on right front.

These still don't affect it's overall appearance and profile. I used to visit with Gus at his cabin between Oshkosh and Omro, WI. His decoys are highly collectible and he was an interesting old guy.
