Tom Fitzpatrick was from Delanco, New Jersey (1887 – 1958).  He carved in the Delaware River Style. 

This low-head decoy is one of his later decoys – which were typically flat-bottomed and narrower.

  This decoy has excellent original paint and patina.

At close examination, on the bottom, you will see a rubber ink stamp of a Quail indicating that it is from the Collection of Bob White.

This is an excellent decoy and very collectible.  It is being offered at a very fair price.

Provenance:  “Floating Sculpture, New Jersey Decoys” by Fleckenstein
