    I AM SELLING THIS FOR A ELDERLY FRIEND OF MINE WHO'S MOTHER WAS PART CHEROKEE. HE IS 88 YEARS OLD AND TELLS ME THIS AND MANY OTHER INDIAN ARTIFACTS HE HAS HAVE BEEN IN HIS FAMILY FOR 80 YEARS.  THEY WERE ACQUIRED FROM A MUSEUM OUT WEST IN THE 1940s. HENCE THE EXCELLENT CONDITION. HIS PARENTS WE'RE AVID COLLECTORS OF NATIVE AMERICAN ARTIFACTS.
    HE'S STILL PRETTY SHARP MENTALLY AND I HAVE NO REASON TO DOUBT HIM. THAT'S JUST MY OPINION. I'M ONLY THE MESSENGER! HE HAS OTHER REALLY INTERESTING INDIAN ARTIFACTS I WILL BE LISTING FOR HIM FROM TIME TO TIME. HE SAYS HE WOULD LIKE TO SHARE HIS TREASURE'S WITH SOMEONE ELSE.
    I'M DOING THIS FOR HIM AS A FAVOR SINCE HE CAN NOT DO IT HIMSELF.  HE  HAS NO FAMILY LEFT AND VERY FEW FRIENDS.  I MAKE NOTHING ON THE SALE OF THESE ITEMS. I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP HIM OUT.
    THIS IS A  REALLY AWESOME LOOKING PIECE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THIS TYPE OF HISTORY AT ALL.
    HE TELLS ME ABOUT EACH ITEM AND I PUT IT HERE BEFORE YOU. IT'S UP TO YOU TO LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS CLOSELY AND MAKE  YOUR OWN DECISION ON ITS AGE AND AUTHENTICITY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION OR WANT MORE PHOTOS PLEASE ASK BE SPICFIC.  IT MAY TAKE ME AWHILE TO GET BACK TO YOU SINCE  I HAVE TO CONTACT HIM FOR ANSWERS. THANKS FOR LOOKING. NO REFUNDS OR RETURN'S
