I have seen a couple of original horns of the Grant expedition and they are alwasy so beautiful.  I made one myself a couple of years back and it is a tough design to do.  As always you two did very well with this one.  Great job.

Cathy was glad to get it done. She had over 33 hours into it.  I thought she did a grat job on it.  I did hear grumbling and quiet curses from time to time.  It was a hard layout

Seriously beautiful horn! The antique finish is unbelievably good, as always.

You and Cathy sure make a great team. Thanks for sharing this one with us.

the base is the usual flat pine. It was painted red and then "doctored"   Thank you all for the complilments.  Cathy,s  abilities to get it right always impresses and pleases me.  I would like to keep most of the work she does.

You would have to build a seperate house just for that Scott. Too many horns and quill work to fit in your house and have room to move. ;D
P.S. tell Cathy hi from the whole family

Scott.....I have to chime in here. That is more than a "Reproduction", it's more like one is real and the other is Memorex. That horn is just beautiful......GREAT JOB CATHY !

WV Regards.....Frank
