This is a carved wooden duck decoy representing a drake scaup, commonly referred to as a bluebill. The item was manufactured by the Animal Trap Company of America under the Victor brand in Lititz, Pennsylvania, likely during the mid-20th century. The decoy features a solid wood body with a textured, combed surface designed to simulate feathering. It retains remnants of its original painted finish, including a dark brown head, a faded yellow-green bill, and patches of gray and blue-black pigment on the sides and tail. A single dark circular eye, likely glass or a tack, remains inset on the right side of the head. The underside of the decoy is marked with incised capital letters, with VICTOR appearing to the left of a central groove and PAT to the right. A brass screw eye for a tether is present on the front of the base. A small white paper sticker with the handwritten number 330 is affixed to the underside.
