From the Personal Collection of Mr. Kroghie Andresen, Charlotte, North Carolina

Former collection of Reggie Waterfield, nephew to John Waterfield.

This diminutive nine inch teal made by John Williams was passed down through family for many years. It was reportedly made before 1900. The many coats of paint, the last coat being a drake widgeon is evidence of its age and use.

Old gunning paint with moderate wear.
