Group of five Folk Art fish decoys composed of painted tinned iron sheet metal or aluminum fins and tails and carved wooden weighted lead bodies, some with applied eyes; others with painted (ca. 1940s-1950, USA).
Though all parts are intact (fins, tails), there is natural patina present from age and use along with paint losses / general wear. A nice collection of an artifact that is often considered one the first forms of Folk Art.
