36" --a very rare and outstanding folk art sculpture from Benny Carter. This set out at his home place in his environment of 100s of sculputres and bird houses. In 2014 his environment was dismantled after the estate sale and most of the outdoor pieces were disgarded as they were worn and tattered. These surviving examples are very rare and held in high regard.
