Included is a signed letter from Bill Guthman on his letterhead dating from May of 2002. CONDITION: Both cased displays are in very good condition. All powder horns show some wear and scattered marks from use; a couple have chipping and age cracks on the plugs. A very interesting group of attractive powder horns and artifacts. DMG
