Hollow Brant

Ira D. Hudson (1873-1949)

Chincoteague, VA, c. 1925

An exceptional hollow Hudson brant decoy, this early two-piece brant displays carved bill detail, tack eyes, strong feathering and a rare white stripe across the tail. A probable rigmate is featured in "Call to the Sky" featuring the decoy collection of Dr. James M. McCleery.

Excellent original paint with even gunning wear.
