2 neat projects:  The Haskel Horn was done for decendents of Comfort Haskell. According to the records that came from the fellow ordering it. Comfort served in the American Army during the Rev War, He was a Minute man also. The part I found intriguing was that he was in on the Sullivan Campaign as was one of my G G G Grand fathers.  Sometime after the Rev War he and family immigrated to England and then on to Australia.  This horn just left for Australia this morning.

The St Louis Buffalo horn was made for the G G G G Grandson of the Seminole Warchief, Billy Bowlegs.   I consider these two guys "Celebrities" and enjoyed fulfilling their wishes.

I agree. Scott's work is top-shelf. I am the owner of that St. Louis horn in these photos. Scott and I discussed the plan of it and decided on various elements from a few of the existing horns. I was more than pleased with it. Thank you again, Scott.

The Sibley's recently made a St. Louis horn for me ala the Audobon horn with George Catlin style decoration which is really cool.  Just excellent work and nice folks.
