New Jersey Waterfowl Print
The 1997-98 design is by artist Rob Leslie of Turnersville, Gloucester County. The scene depicts several oldsquaw ducks and the historic oyster schooner A.J. Meerwald. New Jersey duck stamps are required for hunting waterfowl in the state, but the beautiful designs are sought after by stamp and print collectors nationwide. Since 1984, proceeds from the sale of New Jersey waterfowl stamps and artist-signed limited edition prints have raised more than $3.2 million for the acquisition, protection and improvement of waterfowl habitat and associated wetlands. To date, more than 10,500 acres have been purchased and/or donated to the program. Full-color print includes a resident and non-resident stamp. Comes hand-signed and numbered -- a piece to display with pride.
Available at selected art dealers
statewide. (Note: To purchase this print, call 1-800-DUCKS-23 to
