Pair of Carved Wood and Painted Roadrunner Birds

A charming pair of Carved Wood and Painted Decorated Roadrunner Birds with Wire Legs on a Custom Base. The Birds are 11” Tall Overall 10 3/4” Long. Both in fine original condition. These Roadrunners were carved C. 1960’s in the Palmetto, Florida area by a family of carvers. They lost their business in a tragic fire and the surviving carvings were put into storage. The storage building was later severely damaged by a hurricane and some of the stored birds survived to fly another day. These are 2 of them. These guys have had a very rough life. We have a number of other varieties of birds from the same family that made it through the hurricane, the building did not. The Price is for the Pair.
