1EW - EXCEPTIONAL GUNSTOCK WAR CLUB C.1810-40
(This description was written by Dale years ago, but I never got to
putting it on the website).
Ex-Museum.
The old museum tag (chipped) seems to read “Fort Totten D--/From
Th--/--------/Ch------(could say Chippewa)”. 29 1/2" long, nicely carved
from what appears to be oak, with an incised border line still retaining
good remains of original red color. Flat iron trade spear point makes
this a formidable weapon. Wood has nice, handsome patina. Totally
original and untouched. Has pendant to upper end, black hair braids, and
flattened early brass military buttons on chains. Shipped postpaid. $10,000
Sale Price...$5,500
2EW - GORGEOUS C.1850-60 SHEFFIELD EAGLE FOLDING KNIFE
I believe this is silver, and is beautifully made. Both sides of
the grip have a spread eagle over shield, and decorative panels left and
right. Two smaller pieces of what I believe is horn, and abalone
flank the eagle, this on both sides of the grip. Overall 9 1/2"
long. The main blade is 4 3/8" long, and is stamped with "W M
NICHOLSON SYCAMORE ST SHEFFIELD". The short blade is 2 5/8" long,
with the same stampings. There is some minor pitting, and the
large blade shows signs of being sharpened, and not done so well.
Generally, the grip pieces are in beautiful condition, showing light
use/handling. Beautiful piece Dale had packed away for decades.

Sale Price $1,495
3EW - EXEPTIONAL PIPE TOMAHAWK C.1860-70's
(This description was written by Dale years ago, but I never got to putting
it on the website when he was alive). Like our gunstock war club (in the Early
section), this one was retained in our personal collection for the past 25 years
because they are among the very best we've found. Handsome; beautifully made.
Fitted with a prime head 9" tall, with functional pipe. The blade is pierced
with three holes located below 1" crossed arrows, which may or may not signify
or be the emblem of Indian Scouts in this instance. It appears hand punched on
both sides. The head is mounted on a spectacular haft 22.5" long. It is entirely
file branded, covering every surface with additional fire-branded repeating
pyramids along the bottom on one side, and mostly as well on the opposite side.
Added to this are two fringed hide cuffs, and a long, fine black hair pendant.
We don't know what type hair it is. It seems to us too fine for horse hair. Also
on the pendant are hawk bell, bead and red trade cloth decorations. Couple wraps
of sinew cord were added where the head joins haft...meant to maintain tightness
of joint. An absolutely prime, original, untouched specimen. Fine condition.
Shipped Postpaid.

is marked "US MOD 1879" and another marked "US". I have no
information on any of these items. Please review the photos.
I believe individually priced, you have value far above what I am
selling this lot for. $275

ORIGINAL CIVIL WAR MUSKET PRIMERS PERCUSSION CAPS FOR SHARPS+
Found this bag of 12 original Civil War percussion caps in Dale's
desk, while cleaning out things. He obviously believed they are real,
and wrote "PELLET PRIMERS (SHARPS+) + MUSKET CAPS ORIG!" on the
plastic bag. If he wasn't sure they were original, he wouldn't have
written that on the bag. At the same time, he also kept a couple bags
full of repro items as reference material that he continually
acquired, to help him stay current what was out there in the growing
market of reproductions (over 40-50 years). He knew Civil War stuff
for nearly 50 years, and so I will pass these on for sale with all
confidence.
