DOWNLOAD EBOOKDUCKS & DECOYS: If it looks like a duck, and if it walks like a duck, and if it quacks like a duck ... then it's a duck! But if it doesn't walk or quack or fly, then it's probably a duck decoy. Whether used for hunting or just collecting, duck decoys have become increasingly viewed as an important form of North American folk art. Since the 1960s, numerous collectors' organizations have been created, specialist books and magazines published, with specialist dealers, and special interest shows around the US and Canada. Record prices have been paid for duck decoys. The current world record was set when two decoys (Canada goose and a preening pintail drake) were sold for $1.13 million each on September 19, 2007. The decoys were part of a private sale of 31 decoys for $7.5 million. Enjoy looking at the beautiful photos of ducks and decoys in this book. Enjoy collecting duck decoys, too.
