    I am not sure of the history of these or how to tell their worth - I have a whole flock (9 total) - none have been signed or have an artists mark - where do I go to find out more about them?

      It appears that you have examples of four different makers. The bird in the left front
      of the picture appears to be from the Animal Trap factory. Notice the annular rings on the body. These are made from the copy lathe used to produce it. The smaller bird on the right front is very interesting. It appears to be very old indeed.
