American Indian Dag Fighting Knife Mid-19th C.

Lot #19 (Sale Order 19 of 745)

This is an excellent, mid-19th Century, American Indian dag fighting knife attributed to the Plains region. American Indian early dag knives are commonly referred to as “Beaver Paddle/ Beavertail” dag knives.

From the Great Lakes region on westward, the knives became very popular among the Northern Plains/Upper Plateau tribes, such as the Cree, Metis, Blackfoot, Nez Perce, Chippewa/Ojibiwa, and Shoshone. These were made to be killing weapons; this is why dag knives show a clean, long, double-sided blade without any serration, as they were for battle.

This example shows a typical large, wide, tapering double edge blade with presentation like wood handle with round bolster area, diamond like gripping area, and round pommel, all being nicely adorned with brass trade tacks on both sides in varying patterns.

Winchester Model 75 Target 22 LR Bolt Action Rifle

Lot #40 (Sale Order 40 of 745)

For your consideration is a Winchester Model 75 Target .22 Long Rifle bolt action rifle. In the 1930s, Winchester had been building the Model 52, a high-quality target rifle that was used by many shooting teams worldwide for several decades. Winchester wanted to build a medium-cost target rifle, but the Model 52 was not suitable for this role as it was too expensive and too heavy for the young shooter. As such, Winchester appointed its designers to design a new lighter, less expensive target rifle that could still win matches if used by more experienced shooters. Taking the action of the Model 69 as a base, a new weapon was developed around the action; this weapon would become the Model 75. The action was later modified to allow for a bit of an advantage compared to other rifles, when it came to precision shooting. The Model 75 began production in 1938 and was first advertised in 1939, touting it as being lighter than and as accurate as the older Model 52. This beautiful target rifle utilizes a 28” round barrel chambered in .22 Long Rifle only. The barrel is fit with a hooded front sight and Redfield adjustable rear sight. The left of the barrel is stamped “Made in U.S.A. Winchester Repeating Arms Co. New Haven.

McClellan sailed to Europe as part of a military commission to study developments in European tactics, weaponry, and logistics. McClellan's focus was the organization of engineer troops and cavalry. After his one year tour, during which time McClellan observed several battles of the Crimean War, McClellan brought back almost 100 books and manuals, which he read before writing his report. His report concluded with his proposed manual for American cavalry, adapted from existing Russian cavalry regulations. The piece was handmade by George Lambert of Lambert Custom Leather of Hutchinson, Minnesota. The saddle has an 8" seat and measures approximately 3.5" at the gullet.

Winchester Model 1894 Special Order Takedown Rifle

Lot #98 (Sale Order 98 of 745)

This lot features a Winchester 1894 special order takedown rifle made with a rare half-octagon barrel in the less common caliber of .32 Winchester Special. This rifle, with serial number 214396, was made in 1904, indicating this was an early, second year production for this caliber that was introduced in 1902. This is a superb example of a special order Model 1894 that shows fine blue on both receiver sides and only thinning blue on the bolt and bottom of the receiver. The barrel and magazine also show fine blue and excellent, correct markings on the upper tang, as well as on the barrel. The takedown is tight, as is the wood to metal fit. Winchester often chose a higher grade of walnut to be used on special order and takedown rifles, and that was the case with this rifle as the butt stock reveals a particularly attractive grain pattern. While this rifle is in superior condition, it shows it was used on horseback. This is indicated by a typical saddle rub spot on the upper left side of the forearm. This is caused by a right handed hunter gripping the rifle by the wrist and resting the forearm over the front of the saddle. There is a similar rub area just behind the lever that is probably from riding in a saddle scabbard. This kind of honest wear adds to the western flavor of this fine and early Winchester rifle. Additionally, this Model 1894 is fitted with the correct .32 Special smokeless rear sight, which was used only for this caliber, and is also marked with early patent dates. It is paired with a standard Winchester blade front sight. The bore is bright, sharp, and excellent all the way through; the screw heads are also excellent and the action is tight. The Browning designed 1894 was one of the most popular of Winchester’s models and thousands are still used regularly today. The 1894 was also known as the “Klondike Model”, as many found their way to the Yukon Gold Rush of the last years of the 1890s and into the 20th century. It was equally popular east and west of the Mississippi and big game hunter/conservationist, Theodore Roosevelt, was known to have used several Model 1894s on his various hunts. This is a truly fine 1894 with desirable special order features that is in better condition than usually encountered on the collector market today, especially for such an early production example. It would be a prize for any firearms collector. Serial Number: 214396. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Remington New Model .44 Army Percussion Revolver

Lot #100 (Sale Order 100 of 745)

In this lot is a Remington New Model Army .44 Caliber Percussion Six Shot Civil War revolver, serial number 65195. This extremely accurate and finely made mainstay of the war was Colt’s stiffest competition for their Model 1860 Army Revolver. Many officers, cavalry, and foot soldiers preferred the Remington over the Colt because of the sturdy one-piece frame with top strap that would never shoot loose. Some found it expedient to carry extra loaded cylinders that could be readily installed, to replace a fired one. This revolver features an 8” octagon barrel with correct front sight and is marked “PATENTED SEPT.14, 1858” over the standard “E. REMINGTON & SONS” stamping. This revolver also has the correct brass trigger guard and the barrel and rammer show good, only lightly thinning blue. The cylinder also shows deep slightly aged blue. The frame is mixing heavily with a natural deep and attractive patina. This fine Civil War Remington Army revolver shows excellent tight mechanics, fine rifled bore, loading lever intact, proper functioning, correct original front sight, and lovely walnut grips. The right panel shows an original and desirable light government inspection cartouche. All major parts are stamped with correct government inspector initials. Because of their excellent reputation as reliable handguns, many of these sturdy and powerful revolvers found their way to the Western Frontier after the Civil War. It is interesting to note that the famous showman, Buffalo Bill Cody, carried a Remington New Model Army .44 from 1866 through the 1870s while buffalo hunting and partaking in the Indian Wars. He famously claimed, “It never failed me.” This is a particularly fine example of a Civil War New Model Army .44 caliber revolver that would be a key part of any Civil War or Frontier Arms collection. Serial Number: 65195. This firearm qualifies as an antique and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Winchester Model 1886 .33 WCF Lever Action Rifle

Lot #107 (Sale Order 107 of 745)

This is an exceedingly rare and factory verified, special order Winchester 1886 Extra Lightweight Sporting rifle in smokeless powder .33 WCF (Winchester Center Fire) chambering. This rifle has a serial number of 135107, indicating a manufacture date of 1905. The famed 1886 was one of John Moses Browning’s best and strongest designs. It was especially popular in the West, where a repeating rifle capable of handling the largest and most powerful cartridges of the day was desirable. Theodore Roosevelt also favored the Winchester 1886. (TR was president when this fine Winchester was produced.) This high condition Model 1886 rifle displays some very unusual, rare, and desirable features. By this date, Winchester was making very few 1886 rifles each year. Since the old black powder cartridges of a decade before were rapidly becoming obsolete, Winchester brought out the .33WCF cartridge in 1902 specifically for the Model 1886. This advanced cartridge design was simply the .45-70 case necked down to accept .338” diameter jacketed bullets. At the time, it was the most powerful cartridge offered in any tubular magazine lever action rifle and was used with great success on the largest game. The standard .33 WCF rifle was made as an extra lightweight model with 24” round barrel, half magazine, and flat shotgun butt plate. This example has the very rarely seen special order pistol grip butt stock with correct Winchester embossed hard rubber grip cap. It was also special ordered with a full magazine, which is seldom seen on this model. Further, the butt stock was ordered with a “rifle” curved or crescent shaped butt plate, which is also almost never seen on this model. The special aspects of this fine rifle have been verified by the Cody, Wyoming Firearms Museum at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center, which contains the original Winchester shipping records. Members of the museum may contact the records department for specific Winchester rifle data. This was done with this rifle. The “Call-In” sheet that accompanies the Model 1886 with serial number 135107 reveals that this serial number was applied to a rifle of .33 caliber with a round barrel. It further states that it was factory fitted with a pistol grip stock, full magazine, and rifle butt. It was received in the Winchester warehouse on September 16, 1905 and shipped from the warehouse on September 19, 1905. This rare Winchester Model 1886 shows very tight wood to metal fitting, which indicates that the stock and forearm have never been sanded. The 24” round barrel shows a beautiful deep and bright blue finish, as does the long full magazine tube that was special ordered for this rifle. The barrel is fitted with a correct short ramp front sight paired with a flat top buckhorn rear sight, complete with sliding elevation bar. The correct blued steel receiver displays fine blue mixing with silver patina and excellent deep blue on the bolt at the top of the receiver. The rare rifle butt plate and fore end cap also display fine blue. The barrel has correct Model 1886 markings, along with the correct Winchester address and “.33 WCF” caliber stamping, plus the “Nickel Steel Especially For Smokeless Powder” marking used for this chambering. The upper tang also shows fine correct Winchester markings. The screw heads are excellent; the walnut butt stock and fore end are also excellent. All pistol grip lever action Winchesters are rare and are seldom seen. They are especially unusual on the Model 1886. According to the standard book, “THE WINCHESTER HANDBOOK” by George Madis, of the nearly 160,000 Model 1886s manufactured only 796 had pistol grip stocks and 867 had special butt plates. This, combined with the special full length magazine on this extra lightweight model, make this a most unusual and attractive rifle. The action is tight and the bore is sharp and in excellent condition. This is a very rare variation, 116 year old special order 1886 Winchester with a particularly attractive appearance. Serial Number: 135107. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Winchester Model 1892 .25-20 Lever Action Rifle

Lot #108 (Sale Order 108 of 745)

Featured in this lot is an unusual Winchester 1892 octagon barrel rifle in .25-20 caliber. This rifle has a serial number of 375941 and was made in 1907. This example has the almost never encountered ¾ length magazine. When magazines were not the standard full length, they were occasionally order with ½ or “button” magazines that ended slightly ahead of the fore end. The ¾” length is a true Winchester rarity for any model. This example has the standard 24” octagon barrel that is fitted with a Marble buckhorn rear sight, complete with elevator bar and a Marble small blade/bead front sight. The barrel markings showing the Winchester address etc. are all sharp and clear. The barrel blue is fine and shows light edge wear, while the magazine tube and fore end cap display fine deep blue. The right side of the bright blue receiver of this special order Winchester was once fitted with a Lyman receiver sight that could probably be replaced. The upper tang has the correct Winchester 1892 markings. The 1892 Winchester was Jonathan Browning’s answer to an updated repeating lever action rifle built to handle shorter cartridges. It was Winchesters replacement to the older Model 1873. Basically a scaled down version of the powerfully built big Model 1886, the 1892 was so successful that many are still in use today. Early production examples with special order non-standard features are seldom seen. This is a very attractive 114 year old example of one of Winchester’s most popular and successful lever action models. Serial Number: 375941. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Smith & Wesson .38 Model 2 Single Action Revolver

Lot #109 (Sale Order 109 of 745)

Smith & Wesson .38 Single Action 2nd Model (Model 2, 2nd Issue) revolver with 4 inch barrel and bright nickel finish. This early .38 S&W Center Fire model was only made from 1877-1891. The serial number on this example is 72410 which puts it in mid-production circa 1884. The .38 Single Action 2ndModel was one of S&W’s more powerful pocket revolvers. It found favor with urban dwellers in the East as well as a backup arm for those on both sides of the law on both sides of the Mississippi River. Itwas also a favorite of gamblers and ladies of the evening. This model was small enough to be discretelycarried, yet powerful enough to get the job done when needed. This example displays a full, bright nickel finish with standard S&W monogram hard rubber checkered grips. To load this revolver, the barrel latch containing the rear sight is lifted up releasing the barrel which is then tipped down. As the barrel is lowered the ejector automatically moves out of the cylinder to eject the fired cartridge cases and then snaps back into its recess so the cylinder can be reloaded. This mechanism was designed by S&W and allowed for very fast loading and ejection. S&W serial numbered all the major parts on their revolvers and this one shows matching serial numbers on the frame, barrel, barrel latch and cylinder. The mechanism on this example works perfectly and the barrel to frame lockup is tight. The rifled bore is fine and the hammer engages as it did when new. Overall, a stunning revolver from a very turbulent time in American history. Serial Number: 72410. This firearm qualifies as an Antique, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Osage Missouri War Axe Dunlap & Florer c. 1860

Lot #131 (Sale Order 131 of 745)

The lot features a fantastic Dunlap & Florer Trading Post attributed, blacksmith forged American Indian Tomahawk, referred to by the collecter as a “Missouri War Axe”. This example is attributed to being made at the Osage Indian Reservation at Pawhuska, Oklahoma by the Dunlap & Florer Trading Post and sold to the Osage Indians in the 19th Century. Missouri War Axes that were made by Dunlap & Florer for the Osage have been documented by Baldwin, Francis, and Peterson from Pawhuska in the 1850-1860’s era. Some Dunlap and Florer war axes have been known to originate from the Pawnee, Sauk & Fox, and the Comanche in northern Texas. This example shows a forged iron traditional Missouri War Axe head with a weeping heart cut out in the center, an old Osage orange wood haft that is adorned with brass trade tacks, and a frilly fringe wrap drop hanging. The term "Missouri War Axe" was coined by American Indian weapons collectors to describe this particular style of tomahawk. They were first discovered by Lewis & Clark on their 1804-1805 expedition financed by Thomas Jefferson, which sent them exploring up the upper Missouri River basin. Meriwether Lewis wrote about these weapons and sketched one in his journal, stating that the local Indians were fervently requesting the expedition blacksmith to make additional examples for them. He went as far as to state that it was the only item the Indians were willing to trade corn, grain, and other expedition necessities for and that manufacture and trade of additional axes is what solely got the explorers through the winter of 1805. For more information regarding Dunlap & Florer Osage tomahawks, see “The Missouri War Axe: War Tomahawks of the Plains and Prairies” (2010) by Mark Francis, John Baldwin’s 2001 book “Indian War Clubs of the American Frontier”, and “American Indian Tomahawks” (1965) by Harold Peterson. This example is very similar to the piece shown in Harold Peterson’s 1965 book, “American Indian Tomahawks”, in figure 50 page 92, referred to as an Osage Missouri War Hatchet with Bleeding Heart cutout. It is also similar to the piece sold in our April 2019 sale, which was attributed as a Dunlap and Florer Osage Missouri War Axe and documented in Museum of the Fur Trade Newsletter Volume 44 issue #4 Winter 2008, "Indian Tomahawks and Frontiersmen Belt Axes" by James Hartzler & Daniel Knowles (1995), "The Mark Francis Collection of American Indian Art" by Mark Francis (2009), and "The Missouri War Axe: War Tomahawk of the Plains and Prairies" by Mark Francis (2010). This pieces measures 7 ¾ inches long, with an iron head that is 4 ¼ inches long across the blade and overall 20 inches long with the wood haft.

There is a pierced hole at the bottom of the gripping section, which likely held a drop of feathers or possibly a leather wrist thong at one time.

Eastern Woodlands W. Hall Marked Pipe Tomahawk

Lot #133 (Sale Order 133 of 745)

This is a phenomenal, rare, and important Eastern Woodlands Native American Indian presentation grade pipe tomahawk attributed to maker William A. Hall of Chicago, Illinois. It shows a crude punch-stamped “W. HALL 1820” mark at the pewter end cap. The tomahawk head is originally secured to its Tiger Maple hardwood haft handle that is adorned with two silver bands inlaid down the gradual tapering rounded design, which culminates in the poured pewter smoking tip with zig-zag tipi-like triangle artful inlay. The head is forged iron and shows a vase pattern short and wide pipe bowl, which was forged from a rifle barrel; hand cut rifling is still visible in the smoking chamber. The axe head shows forged moldings, forged chevrons, and forged rings on the bowl, all being expertly crafted. At the center of the blade is a poured brass weeping heart on both sides. The head is secured to the haft with a poured pewter gasket and end cap. Provenance: The tomahawk is from a private Virginia Antique Weapons collection. William Hall supplied presentation grade pipe tomahawks and trade knives to the U.S. Department of the Interior Office of the Indian Trade to be dispersed to Chiefs and other tribal dignitaries during treaty signings and as gifts during the 1820-1840 time period. Another example attributed to Hall is shown on page 152, figure 69, in “Tomahawks and Frontiersmen Belt Axes” (1995) by Daniel Hartzler & James Knowles and has a similar vase-shaped pipe bowl with upper ring, forged chevrons, forged moldings, and a dark Tiger Maple haft. This example is shown in the images for comparison. For additional information on William Hall and examples, see “Tomahawks & Pipe Axes of the American Frontier” (1995) by John Baldwin; “American Indian Tomahawks” (1965) by Harold L. Peterson; and "Indian Tomahawks & Frontiersmen Belt Axes" (1995) by Hartzler & Knowles. The piece is also very similar to several examples shown in Harold L. Peterson’s aforementioned 1965 book “American Indian Tomahawks” in figure 130 and 132 on page 107. The first example dates to 1800-1825 from Oglala Sioux Chief Red Cloud with barrel vase shaped bowl, forged moldings inlaid weeping heart, crescent curved blade with slight inward turn end, and Tiger Maple haft with silver bands and smoking tip. The second one is an 1800-1820 example obtained from the Iroquois with a similar axe crescent blade with inward curve, silver weeping heart on the blade, and pewter inlays. The entire tomahawk has a nice, deep shiny patina from honest age and use and overall, it is in good condition. The piece appears to be an original early example with correct shape, finish, haft, and adornments, with the “W. Hall” mark being a collection mark, early stamping with touch ups or a later addition. Please review all the pictures of the piece and personally inspect it to come to your own conclusion of age, origin, provenance, and condition. Overall, the piece measures 20 ½ inches in length with a head that is 7 inches long by 2 ½ inches wide.

LARGE RARE Custer's Last Fight Film Poster c.1922

Lot #163 (Sale Order 163 of 745)

From a re-release of the movie in the 1920s, this large, vividly colored lithograph was printed in two sections by the Otis Lithograph Co. The multi-sheet sections are attached as one piece. Pictured is a soldier lying on the ground as two Indians attack him with tomahawks and knives. Thomas Harper Ince (1880 – 1924) was an American silent film producer, director, screenwriter, and actor. Ince was known as the "Father of the Western" and was responsible for making over 800 films. He revolutionized the motion picture industry by creating the first major Hollywood studio facility and invented movie production by introducing the "assembly line" system of filmmaking. He was the first mogul to build his own film studio, dubbed "Inceville", in Palisades Highlands. Ince was also instrumental in developing the role of the producer in motion pictures. His “Custer's Last Fight” (1912) production was one of his most successful. Thomas Ince’s 1912 three-reeler was starred and directed by Francis Ford, the brother of John Ford, who would become the most famous director of Westerns. The Indians are treated as vicious, cowardly savages, which would not be true of most Custer movies after this one. There is slight roughness on the edges and various tears and splits throughout the piece, as shown in the photographs. Nothing is missing and the overall visual of the poster is in good condition. This poster will make a beautiful display piece. This piece measures approximately 78” x 41”.

While many Americans are familiar with the Hudson's Bay Company's (HBC) iconic point blankets, Early’s had been making trade/ point blankets much longer. Edward Early and John Early and Sons were two among many blanket makers in the small town of Witney in Oxfordshire, ancestral home of the traditional British wool trade. The Earlys, among other blanket making families in Witney, supplied HBC with trade blankets as early as the early 18th century. In the 1920's, a rivalry started between Early’s and HBC. Early’s had begun making point blankets under their own name (Earlywarm), as well as supplying point blankets to non-HBC outlets. In the 1980's, the company name was changed to Early's of Witney. Early’s shut its doors in 2002. This Early's Witney Point blanket is a four point blanket and features the traditional trade blanket stripes in indigo, yellow, red, and green. The condition of this blanket is good, with no obvious signs of damage; it is in good usable condition. The measurements of this four point blanket are 83" x 63".

Canadian "Voyageurs" Silver Dollars 1965 & 1966

Lot #210 (Sale Order 208 of 745)

Included in this lot is a collection of 1965 & 1966 Canadian, “Voyageur” silver dollars. The 1965 and 1966 Queen Elizabeth II Canadian Dollars inspire much enjoyment and challenge for series enthusiasts and variety collectors. These mid-1960s silver dollars carry some of the earliest numismatic portraits of Queen Elizabeth II donning her extravagantly bejeweled tiara, updating the original portrait of the newly coroneted young queen that debuted on Canadian coinage in 1953. But they also depict something else of numismatic note: ornamental beads in a variety of sizes. These beads, seen on the periphery of the obverse design along the rim, serve a purely decorative purpose and are not integral to the portrait of the queen. However, many collectors of Canadian Dollars are bedazzled by the varieties arising from these beads. Making these mid-1960s Canadian Dollars even more fascinating and complex to collect, the various bead styles are also combined with variations in the shaping of the numeral “5” of the coin’s date on the reverse. All told, combining business strikes and proof like strikes, there are at least a dozen distinct varieties among the 1965 and 1966 Canadian Dollars. Technical flaws cropped up when striking began for the new portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Mary Gillick. Originally, the 1965 Queen Elizabeth II Dollars were struck bearing the Small Beads variety. However, this motif, featuring a flat field, proved to be harsh on the dies and led to a short die life. Adjustments were made, making the field more concave and upward sloping toward the rim and resulting in the Medium Beads variety. Finally, Royal Canadian Mint officials fine-tuned the obverse, further sharpening the dished concavity of the fields and increasing the size of the beads, producing the Large Beads variety. Along with these changes, which are seen on both the 1965 and 1966 dollars, there were also refinements to the shaping of the “5” on the 1965 dollars. Some of these coins bear a “5” with a bluntly edged tail; others showcase a pointed tail on the “5.” The “Blunt 5” is known among only the Small Beads and Large Beads varieties. The two 1965 struck silver dollars show the small bead variety and the “Blunt 5” striking. The three 1966 struck silver dollars also show a small bead stamping. All five coins show a nice patina, evident of their 60 year life. The coins measure 36 mm in diameter and 2.8 mm in thickness.

Springfield 45-70 Trapdoor Carbine Cleaning Rod

Lot #229 (Sale Order 224 of 745)

This is an extremely rare Springfield .45-70 Trapdoor Carbine accessory, steel three piece cleaning rod with “headless shell extractor”, made to fit in the butt stock under the sliding door of the trapdoor butt plate of cavalry carbines. These rods and headless shell extractor are almost universally missing from these historical Indian Wars carbines. The rod is in excellent condition and the broken shell extractor retains both parts that screw together and fit inside the butt stock. Early .45-70 cases were prone to separate upon firing, with the forward portion of the shell remaining lodged in the chamber. This would render the arm unserviceable as a fresh cartridge could not be loaded into the chamber before the stuck remaining portion of the prior case was removed. This beautifully machined tool was made to perfectly fit the rifling in the bore of the carbine. It was inserted and pushed down the bore, where it would engage the stuck headless cartridge case and force it out through the breech. This was an essential tool often used in the heat of battle. It is supplied with a copy of the section of the Springfield Manual depicting the rod, headless case extractor, and text explaining its use. It is all in excellent, uncleaned condition.

This lot offers a beautifully framed lithograph of C.M. (Charlie) Russell's "Free Trappers". The piece is signed “CM Russell 1911” with his trademark bison skull in the lower left corner.

Unlike Remington, Russell settled permanently in the west (Montana) and wholeheartedly embraced everything life there had to offer. He was a "real" cowboy; he lived with a mountain man and was an adopted brother of the Blackfoot tribe. His oils, watercolors, and bronzes reflect an intimate knowledge of his subjects. This lithograph is professionally matted and framed with a mauve matting that accents the colors Russell used in the setting sun on the snow. The print measures 29 1/2" X 20 1/2" and the frame measures 37 3/4” X 29 1/2". This piece is in very good condition.

Borax is King 20 Mule Team Soap Tin Sign

Lot #726 (Sale Order 720 of 745)

Included in this lot is a vintage 'Borax is King 20 Mule Team Package Soap' tin sign. Teams of mules were used to move millions of pounds of Borax from remote mines in inaccessible Death Valley to the railroad at Mojave. Originally, teams of eight and ten mules were used, but the trek proved too much. A man named Ed Stiles came up with the idea of hitching two 10-mule teams together—twice the normal amount—resulting in a 100-foot-long team that took 10 days to carry 10 tons of borax one way across the desert. In 1894, a steam engine named “Dinah” was brought in to replace the mules, but Dinah was no match for the epic 20 mule team’s power. She broke down and was towed back to town by the very mules she tried to replace. The power of Borax works just as hard as the heritage of its mule team, cleaning deep to tackle your toughest mess. The sign is in fair condition and shows some damage, rust, and scratches. There is a wooden board screwed to the back side of the sign. The sign measures 23 3/4" by 35".
