Default Duck Decoys

I know this is off topic, and the moderator is welcome to delete this, but I would like some help identifying the carver of a couple of nice decoys I have. I have been told they are from Napa Valley. My email is wjdiii@bellsouth.net. I can send pictures if anyone can help.

I would be happy too but, even though I am not computer illiterate, I can't figure out how to post. If I send them to you will you do it? Send me your email if you are willing. They are very nice decoys. William Dunn

Oh My! Nice stuff. Are those birds from the Illinois area?

I bought these from a friend in Chicago who told me they were from Wisconsin. I took them to a free appraisal in Memphis by Guyette and Schmidt and they told me they were from the Napa Valley. I have no idea where they are from. I would like to know the region and carver let me know. Thanks. William Dunn

I'm sure no expert on decoys, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night - I've not seen any discussion of West Coast decoys that nice in my reading.

I find decoys just as interesting as Parkers.

Just today I purchased a decoy book of Joel Barbers
