CHARLIE SALTER<br />
PORTSMOUTH ISLAND REDHEAD<br />
LOT NO. 3<br />
ABOUT THIS DECOY<br />
This exceptional Charlie Salter (1907 to<br />
1960) redhead was made on Portsmouth<br />
Island. This decoy is extremely rare as it is<br />
made entirely of juniper; most surviving<br />
examples of his work are made of cork or<br />
balsa made while he lived at Atlantic.<br />
