    Description

    Small shoveler duck decoy produced by the now-shuttered Beswick Pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, England. The bottom is marked "Approved by Peter Scott." Scott was a British painter, conservationist, and ornithologist, and the one of Captain Robert Falcon Scott, a famous Antarctic explorer. Probably dates from the 1940s-1950s. The item is from the private collection of the late Claude Caspar-Jordan of Paris, a noted newspaperman, collector, and amateur ornithologist.
