Re: The Wallet Found !


Chuck, what you have found is the right wallet, but the wrong stitching. If you look on the wallet in the Sood's picture, it has more stitching. But good find Chuck!

Re: The Wallet Found !


Still, it’s more about the significance of the find than the exact details. The overarching revelation is that there are two standard styles of wallet: one with a horse and one with a bull. We now know that the bull is grouped with the correct prairie scene. What Chuckles wallet lacks in precision, it more than makes up for in historical significance.

Re: The Wallet Found !


This seems to be a popular motif for wallet makers. The original seems to be burned with hot iron stencil with double lacing trim.

There seems to be few good serch-words for it

Carved wallet

Tooled wallet

Western wallet

Cowboy wallet

Longhorn and cactus hehhee

This has been reclassified as seimpaulian, but someone out there may still want it:

Re: The Wallet Found !


I actually misspoke. It should probably be considered infrasemipaulian.

You may have been right to not post it. I decided that since I might or might not have bothered to claim it for myself, it should probably be posted.

Just so everyone knows, it is no longer considered to be a reasonable facsimile of the wallet.

This should not have existed, but it does. I found (and claimed) this wallet. It has a horse on one side and the correct plants on the other:

Object collecting is truly an amazing sport!
