Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

The economy shipping on this horn is only $6.00, that makes it all worth it.  ::)

Wow!  I never realized I owned such a valuable piece of Americana!  I have a horn nearly identical to that one, but it didn't cost me $450.  Don't know how old it is, except it's way older than me  ;)

No bids--surprise. And relisted. I love the description. Quite a crock of camel trash.

In this day and age there are always people who think every old thing is worth a fortune. There are also people who want to cash in on that belief. If the two get together, you just never know what will happen. In some respects I blame the Antiques Road Show.

Yep, how to list a $10 horn and lets see what cash I can grab from some with more money than brains.  LMAO!

Gee, antique round head nails and no engraving is more demand.  Wow, what planet is this 10 minute expert from?

Gary, I think it's the same location as some storefront "antique" shops I've visited. I have a friend who handles estate sales and has a storefront labeled "Elkhorn Antiques." He chuckles about the fact that elk have antlers and calls himself a junk dealer.
