When you find an appraiser, please let me know. I have duck decoys that were hunted over by my grandfather and his sons over 100 yrs ago. They were on display at the Filson Club a few yrs back. They are not fancy, very weathered, and I would like an official estimate--not the value that Filson Club put on them. I had 4, now just 2, having given one each to my sons. ..Thanks..

I have 5 or 6 sets of them and a lifesize set of Canada geese. These are gorgeous.. they look real..he was very talented.. he used to tie flies for flyfishing also.. These were handcarved in the 1930's by my dad's father in law. He was a well known attorney in Tulsa and also in Canada, when he was the vice pres. of Sinclair oil.
