Wingsetter Decoys

Hey guys, I picked up an old hard plastic Black Duck decoy at a garage sale for $5 on Sunday. It has a movable head and it just caught my eye. It has a sliding lead weight on the keel and says Wingsetter Decoys, Jax Fla. I'm guessing it's from the late 60's, but was wondering if any of you might know anything about this company.
Thanks,
Ron
 
Ron, I have seen them a few times over the years but don't have any info on them. They were kind of a cool decoy, just didn't last very long. Kind of scarce (at least in the places I have been) so it might be worth a little something.

Thanks Dave, I have 3 doz or so of the old Victor hard plastic mallards, but I had never heard of Wingsetter before. I thought the movable head was cool and am trying to decide about including it in my spread this fall or putting on a shelf. I think it will probably see some use in the spread just cause I like old and oddball stuff. I prove that by having 4 16 gauges that I still use from time to time.
Thanks again
Ron
