Collection of early pioneer items
Recently, with the help of Ivan S. Miller, I was able to put together an early pioneer display: pistol, knife, powder flasks, and pouch. These items were in my collection but I did not have them displayed until Ivan came up with the pegboard idea. Now I can show them to friends displayed nicely in a grouping.
