Antique 1920s–30s cased display — Great Spotted Woodpecker (mounted)
A charming early 20th-century display: a Great Spotted Woodpecker, mounted on a naturalistic branch and housed in its original wood-and-glass case. The piece retains bright, lively coloration and period character.
Condition
Original case with expected age wear: marks, scratches and light scuffs to the wood and glass.
Slight wear to the bird’s feathers consistent with age.
The back of the case requires minor attention; one side is held with tape but is an easy restoration/repair for a conservator or competent DIYer.
Structurally sound and display-ready once the back is secured.
Measurements
Height: 26.5 cm
Width: 22.5 cm
Depth: 11.5 cm
Notes
An appealing example for collectors of taxidermy or decorative antiques, especially those seeking authentic 1920s–30s display cases.
