| My passion for decoys, Folk Art, History and the Eastern Shore has led me to collect these items for the past 20 years. I acquire these items through friends, auctions, estate sales and fellow collectors. I will purchase quality Folk Art. Please contact me. |
My name is Art Raine and I reside on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The actual Raine’s Tavern, better known as McLean house, is in Appomattox, Va. This is where the “war between the states” came to an end.
