Horn and bag
« on: January 13, 2013, 06:40:39 PM »
Recently made horn and bag




















The bag is pigskin, the buckle is handmade. The priming horn has a motto in German that says "May God make me fast and accurate"

The map is of the Sandusky, Ohio area....that's what the person buying this wanted.

Thanks, I was wondering if there were forts on it or what it represented historically.  I wouldn't
mind having a F & I horn with Fort Niagara and Lake Erie and the Allegheny river area.  Nice work.

Yes, there a two forts a trading post, trails between towns and land divisions. I used a map i found at the Log Cabin for reference. The horn is quite small, so that it fits the profile of the bag, and getting information and all onto was tedious.
