Description

Here we have a fantastic, rare and iconic Coaxer from Wisconsin, made by Lloyd Wachter, dating from the 1950's or so. Measuring 12" long, painted a cream all over, with the lightest pink accent dots along the length of the sides, and highlighting of pink in the gills. Brass domed tacks for eyes. I see an olive green peeking out from below the cream, suggesting a fisherman's in-use working paint. Unfortunately one fin is lost. Nevertheless, great piece of History from the North Woods, with a terrific patina appropriate to its age. A small packing fee is included in the shipping.
