Those of you who know points know that Pinetrees longer than 3” are quite rare. Here’s one that’s 3 7/16” and superbly flakes of a mottled Harrison County flint. Needle tip. This is without doubt the finest example of knapping that I have ever owned. One nicked serration is the only damage. According to old notes, this was found in Oldham Co., KY, in 1903. $1,800. |

This huge Culbreath is 3 9/16” and would be museum quality except for a flaw in the stone on the reverse side gives the point a bit of flat surface. Old card said it was found “on an old Indian camp site” on the south end of Newnan’s Lake, in Alachua County, FL. $475. |

This bi-pointed blade of gray, blue and maroon Sonora flint is 6 1/8” and has a light nick on each side, perhaps where it was mounted by wire to a board. Old card says the piece was acquired in January 1912 and that it was from “southern Indiana.” One end shows the stone’s rind, as it should on these pieces. $700. |
