Ward Bros. Broadbill
An outstanding and early example of a broadbill or bluebill by these famous brothers from Crisfield, Maryland signed and dated 1930. One of a handful of remaining examples from this rig, this drake exhibits the signature wide bill and stipple paint on the back. It does have a tail chip on one side of the tail as most of the examples do. A drake from this rig is shown on page 46, plate 37 in “The Ward Brothers’ Decoys - A Collectors Guide” by Gard & McGrath. Don’t miss this opportunity to add a rare decoy to your collection.
