Rare Malachi Waterfield (NC, 1832-1916), Hen Canvasback

Item Details

Description

Rare Malachi Waterfield (NC, 1832-1916), Hen Canvasback

Knotts Island, North Carolina, circa 1880s, carved and painted wood, incised RL on bottom.
Length 15.75 in.
Malachi was a no-nonsense type of man and has become a folklore legend in the collecting community. He fought off northern soldiers in the Civil War who tried to take his farm. He was born deaf but his extraordinary eyesight made up for hearing challenges and allowed him to become a legendary wing shot. He was a voracious reader and became a self educated businessman. His decoys are rare and extremely collectible. This hen has a stately winded head pose.
From the hunting rig of Roy Lewark.

Additional high-resolution photos are available at www.lelandlittle.com

Condition

Old gunning paint, working repair to neck, age check on bottom.
