    Hi, My wife has this Bellshill Beacon Duck in a very sad state, one leg missing and the neck has had some repairs. It’s been in her family for many years. My question is can you repair the Duck or maybe replace.

    Kind Regards

    Hi, My Mum (aged 90) has a belisha duck, known in the family as Lisha. She was given the duck in about 1934 by her grandfather who was on the local council and were installing bolisha beacons at the time. She has photos of herself playing with Lisha taken about 1937.
