Here we have a complete hunting rig of solid carved mallards from the William E Pratt Manufacturing Company (Joilet & Chicago, IL) ca. 1930s. Paint is good and all original with in use wear. One eye is missing from three examples. Each measures approximately 16” in length. These are the No. 1 smooth mallards as shown on page 304 of North American Factory Decoys by Kenneth Trayer. A rare find.
