Details
This handsome male pintail drake duck decoy was hand carved and hand painted in 1994 by James "Jim" Taylor Burtis, Sr. (1937-2019) of Riva, Maryland. Jim started wildfowl carving in the early 1950's, selling his decoys locally.
This decoy has a shapely head with inset, painted eyes and a graceful neck. The painted plumage is realistic and well-done. Attached to the bottom are a lead keel weight, which keeps the decoy from tipping over, and a leather loop, used to tie the anchor line. The underside has the initials "J.T.B." stamped into the wood and is also hand signed "Jim Burtis RIVA MD. 1994."
This decoy measures 16 inches long, about 2/3 the size of an average pintail drake, which measures 21 to 30 inches long. It's 7 inches tall to the top of the head, about 5 1/2 inches wide across the breast and weighs 2 1/2 pounds. The decoy is in exceptional, almost new condition, displayed but never shot over.
