Kinda Old Powder Horn

This powder horn was made in 1980 by David Wright. Yes, the same David Wright who does all of the great frontier paintings. David made this horn as part of his chapter on "The Crafts" that he wrote for the first Book of Buckskinning. He was kind enough to engrave our names on it "Oran SCURLOCK Bill" on it and giving it to us when he came down to work on the book.

You may not know it, but David came to Texarkana in 1980 and worked with us for a week in November putting that first book together. That week working with David on the layout was invaluable to me. It also helped us forge a friendship that continues to this day.

Anyway, Dad (Oran) recently brought this from his house to the office for display, and I thought you would like to see it.
