Are these decoys recognizable to anybody?

[JimG]

I found myself at an auction last night and these decoys came up.... Kinda look factory made....not sure. No signatures. Bought 3. Seems to be original paint. Look familiar to anyone?

LL BEAN?

the have the appearance of some oldish herter corks

 

[Dave Church]

They don't have much of a "manufactured" look to me. I would guess privately carved.

LL Bean with added weight by owner

 

[Vince Pagliaroli]

No wood tail insert, and a Bean type keel. Could be special order, or economy style decoy that saw very little use, and were cared for.
