 Unique, handcarved, lead Dog proudly displaying a Masonic emblem on his side! Dug in a Union Civil War Camp in Central Virginia, this is one of the coolest relics I've seen in a while. This small, carved dog measures 1 ½" across the base and stands 1 ¼" high. On the dog's left side in raised relief is the Masonic symbol. Perhaps the dog is a copy of a camp dog or of a companion left at home. I guess we'll never know the dog's association with the Masons or why the carving was specifically adorned with the symbol. It does stand out as one of the finest lead carved figures I've personally seen and I hope this little guy finds a good home. Guaranteed to be an original and authentic, dug Civil War item. Nicely displayed in a 6" x 8" Sgt. Riker Display Case (glass top). Item MS1003 $450.00

 The Famed Whittled Whitworths from the published article in The American Digger Magazine! A photograph of five Confederate Whitworth Minie Balls highlights three that are carved and two that are not. They were all dug from the same hole across the road from Lee's Headquarters on land then belonging to the digger's Aunt. From an initial examination, I concluded that my Rebel Sharpshooter, no longer needing them, sat down and began to despondently carve. I kept the Whitworths and had a chance to look at the bullets every day for years. One day, as I looked at them, an idea began to form. (Click on the headline and link to the rest of the story.) I now offer these intriguing Whitworths and their story to you. This purchase comes in a beautiful Cedar display case. Order Whitworths $2500.00
