Description
Early Long Island Canada goose decoy attributed to WILBER CORWIN (American, Bellport, Long Island, New York, 1852-1914). This decoy has certainly seen action. A similar goose was auctioned at Julia and Guyette on April 26 & 27, 1990, lot 702, and is pictured in the auction catalogue on page 156. This goose has worn wing paint which appears original. The white is very early overpaint with craquelure and flacking. The head and neck have cracks, and pieces of the neck are missing. The bottom paint is original and worn, with the number ''8'' branded in five places. The body has been hit with large size shot spray, a true veteran. 11-1/4''h, 9-1/2''w, 25-1/2''l. Provenance: Estate of Joseph ''Jay'' St. Mark, PhD, of Newtown, Connecticut, historian, appraiser, and collector of fine Americana.
