SAVING PRIVATE BERRY ~ One "BAD TO THE BONE" or horn in this case
REBEL RELIC! This has to be the one of the best relics I have ever seen.
Carved artistically on the horn is: Confederate soldier, musket, bayonet, State
Building, sun, "never surrender", "liberty", Confederate Flag, "Private Berry Co.
B 3 D. TENN" two cannons, six cannon balls, and numerous small designs. This
Tennessee treasure was recently sold at a Iowa estate sale as a family "war
trophy" brought home from the war. Berry's records show that he rode with the
General Forrest! Horns are generally associated with early war equipment. I
am thinking that Private Berry left his horn behind at Ft. Donelson with the
backwater escape of Forrest. The "never surrender" carved on the horn would
fit the model of Forrest's men. This piece would also show the early war pride
and lack of equipment the South had on hand. This is a "one of a kind" relic
you will never see again. A true piece of art and Tennessee History!
SOLD
THE BOY OF COMPANY "C" ~ Real deal Hardee Hat in nice shape with all
the goodies usually missing. The condition in my opinion is good considering
this is a campaign worn hat and not a unused never saw the War example. The
sweatband is still intact usually missing. Hat does have some wear on the brim
and a little damage in the front crown. A few other small holes here and there
on top. This is a item most collections are missing and REBEL RELIC PRICED
TO CATCH A HAT!
SOLD
