Beginnings of the Fort Halifax map horn.

Started scrimshawing what will be a French & Indian war style map horn of Fort Halifax in 1756 along the Susquehanna river. Top side will have the seal of King George II and a cartouche for an owners name. Bottom side will be a map of the Susquehanna river valley in 1756.

Wonderfull look... It is going to be a memorable horn. :)

When I saw the thread title I was hoping it would be fort Hallifax, here in Maine on the Kennebec river.  The date  is even correct...
