Elmer Crowell Turned-head Yellowlegs

A. Elmer Crowell (1862-1952) East Harwich, MA, c. 1930 8 in. long

A turned-head lesser yellowlegs with exceptional paint detail. The degree of the head's turn compelled Crowell to use an applied head in contrast to his standard one-piece shorebird model. The wire legs are affixed to a natural wood base signed "A. E. Crowell, Cape Cod." Excellent original paint with minimal wear, repair to tip of rightmost toe.
