- Canada Goose "Greater" Magnum Vintage Working Decoy Original Working Paint Hand Carved From Cedar by Danny Lee Heuer.
- This decoy is from my 96 year old (deceased) fathers estate and my private decoy collection of my Dad's best to me.
- Hand carved and painted by Danny Lee Heuer out of Michigan High Ground White Cedar circa 1987.
- Approximate size is; 21 1/2 " in length by 13 " high and 9" wide, a full size working decoy.
- My father was one of the "Old Time" carvers/duck hunters and his decoys reflect a lifetime of knowledge and love of the "sport of kings!"
- This Canada Goose Decoy was one of Dad's early carvings, and a winter painted & carved decoy.
- His early "winter painted" decoys, always seemed to me to be more slowly painted, as he had time and his hands could still hold the paint brushes more easily.
- Early in his carving career, before arthritis bothered his hands, he would paint several decoys in a tighter style than later on, this is one of those decoys.
- The bottom of the decoy has dad's name & date carved into it with the SSM location info as the picture shows
- Also on the bottom is visible the 12 drill holes to help in hollowing out the bottom for easier transportation, making the decoy slightly lighter.
- We floated and hunted this decoy in the late 88 season, only two different times, with strict instructions not to shoot near it of course, nothing more thrilling then hunting over a hand carved gunning decoy!
- After hunting over this decoy, it was retired to my personal collection room as I loved the painting on it and carving style & also the magnum size of this "Greater Canada Goose".
- This decoy was as with a bunch of his early work also is one of my very favorite's of mine, as it was one of the first of many we floated and hunted over.
- This Vintage Working "Canada Goose" Decoy is now up for grabs & available for a addition to that serious decoy collection.
