As you know, the Blue Goose is a color phase of the Snow Goose. Ralph's BLUE GOOSE decoys are extremely rare - and you are getting a signed, and stamped GOOSE SLEEPER (super rare) from the late 1980's/ early 1990's - when Ralph did his finest work. This one is gorgeous - and you won't want to miss it!!! Size: 17 1/2"L X 7"H X 8W (without the keel).
If you are a serious decoy collector, don't miss this GOOSE with the keel. Please see the photos for the best possible description. This decoy is in original paint, and MINT condition, full size, and exquisitely carved and painted - for a realistic look. Note: Ralph was born in 1929 and just past away in November 2017. Ralph carved since he was 15 years old. He worked for the Pacific Central Railroad, and was a lifelong carver.Few carvers offer the lifelike look, and detail that Ralph did. And please note: the pics of the decoy, as nice as they are, do not compare to the beauty of the actual decoy(s) in person.
