I purchased more spearing decoys from the estate of another well known spearing decoy maker, the late Otto Bishop. I have some Dixon's, Bethel's, Larry Wright and Mike Ott decoys listed on eBay while they last.
This listing features: A Vintage Minnesota Lawrence Bethel 5" Wood Fish Ice House Spearing Decoy
Not sure exactly what species of fish this is. It has perch type colors but not the striping.
This has never sat in a hole. Excellent condition for its age. I am guessing the Lawrence made only a few or even just one of these. There is some VERY minimal paint loss from being stored at Otto's place for YEARS. An awesome and original decoy. This will display beautifully.
Measures 5" long
Great color and nice detail.
One loop for line on the top.
The body and tail fin are wood. The other fins are metal. Painted eyes.
This is signed B on the bottom which is Lawrence Bethel's makers mark.
See photos.
