Stuff for Sale at Searles Raid


Recommended Posts

Anyone coming to Searles Raid this weekend, here's a heads-up that I am hoping to sell off some of my surplus gear to fund new gear (why can't government work this easily?).

Among the items coming with me (but, I hope, not coming home with me):

*British Dragoon pistol

*Hessian hanger

*Mariners jackets (one cotton, one wool)

*Super funky hand-knit wool stockings (striped)

*linen workman's cap

*pierced tin lantern

*tomahawks

...and other goodies.

If you are interested, you can contact me directly at andrewcbatten(at)hotmail.com for prices and more information.

In days of old when ships were bold just like the men that sailed 'em,

and if they showed us disrespect we tied 'em up and flailed 'em,

often men of low degree and often men of steel,

they'd make you walk the plank alone or haul you 'round the keel.

Glad to be of service! I still have some outstanding deals on mid-18th century clothing (generally waist sizes around 36-38 and chest size around 42-44), a nice hand-forged tomahawk, hand-knit stockings, cocked hat...

Come one, come all! Papa needs to buy some funky Conquistador gear!

Can you post a picture of the tomahawk here? I remember looking at it in St. Augustine, but my memory is hazy... And I might be interested... Price as well if you will! :D

I'll have my lovely wife find our camera and get some pictures posted asap. The price, including shipping, is $25.

Michael,

Photo of the tomahawk is now available under my profile, in Gallery. It includes a second hickory handle at no additional charge.

Oh, plenty of stuff left. I have a Hessian hanger, lots of clothes, the World's Softest Tricorn, and probably other things that never even made it out of storage. I probably have some other surplus knives I should sell. I will have to raid the storage locker tomorrow and see what I can find.

Probably even a fowling piece I could spare...
