I have a few Plaquemines Parish late 1800's decoys from such greats as Nicole Vidocavich Sr., Armstrong, LaFrance and couple others. Duplessis. i will post pics w i can. Had them all appraised at a total of over $100,000. a Duplesis Blue Bill was appraised for $40K.
I'll post mine and if you have a pics or stories of Louisiana Antique decoys. Please share.

Also if you have any questions on some old decoys i may have the answer. I have done a tremendous amount of research on Louisiana Carvers.

Awesome man, did you know they were worth that much while getting them or did yah just find them in your papa's garage? That would be a helluva find. My grandfather had a good bit of them when I was a kid at our hunting camp but I have no idea where they are today. Probably washed away. Either way man that's good stuff and I would sell them lol.
