    Measurements:  The red duck is a little larger and measures about 10 inches from the top of its head to the base (height) and is about 9.5 inches long.  The checkered duck is about 9 3/4 inches tall and 9 inches long.
    These cute Christmas duck pillows were purchased about 10 years ago at an estate sale for my now-grown daughter.  She is a duck lover and displayed them in her room at Christmas.  They are handmade and were considered vintage when I bought them, so they are likely from the '70s or 80s and around 35 - 45 years old.  They are both constructed of a sturdy cotton-poly blend fabric and pattern that was common in the mid 70s - 1980s (my mom was a seamstress and had a lot of this kind of material).
    One duck is solid, bright fire engine red and the other is a beautiful red & white houndstooth check.  The ribbons on their necks were there when we purchased them and I suspect have been there since these pillows were made.  They were stored in airtight containers 11+ months out of the year and were taken out and displayed during the holidays.  They have not been played with or used as actual pillows - they have only been on display.   They are in wonderful condition - no stains, holes, tears, marks or loose thread.  The colors are still bright & vivid and the stuffing is intact and still fluffy.  They need to find a home where they can be enjoyed each year.
