American Folk-Art Carved Wooden Canoe

About the Item

American folk-art canoe, probably from Alaska, but could also be American Indian. Has quite a bit of age to it and I would expect it was made in the early 1800s. The canoers are made from seal skin and one is missing its head, but we could fabricate one with no problem.
