COON MEMORABILIA
Posted: Fri Apr 02, 2010 4:35 pm
Welp. . .. heres a piece
of COON history just arrived Texas this week.
Big ole thang 36" X 36".
See att. email from Mr Harris validating
it to be his first sign. He wagged this
heavy thang to those early shows, a hopin
to peddle those COONS.... PRICELESS (to me anyway)
This board was part of a display I first had made. There were two other sides to it that folded out so it could sit on a table. These other sides were used for pictures of us making knives. After caring this around to several shows (and it was heavy), wear and tear quickly became apparent (to the outside). Because of this, and the weight, I purchased a lightweight table display from a advertising company. I used this lightweight display until I went out of business.
I remember now I did give this to a Colonel Coon Collector from Nortwest Tennessee. Also please note the box the cards were in. As you know, I had set up a box company. The wrap (woodgrain) is the same as what we used on some fo our knife boxes.
Yes, the board is from Tennessee Knife Works and the box of cards were drawn by my wife at the time (who is now deceased), Virginia F. Harris.
