Mike and LIsa Anne Milhorn have been collecting and selling decoys since the early 1980's. An appreciation of the antique working decoy has lead to an extensive collection of Antique Ward Brothers, Tyler, One Arm Kelly and Contemporary Carvers Mark McNair, Reggie Birch, Frank Finney, Ryan Dockiewicz, and Bob Moreland. As with any collector, they are constantly buying and selling decoys.
