AUCTION WILL END Friday at 9:30 Eastern time--New York
Years ago, I worked out a deal with Bill Jewell, who was the founder and backbone of Historical Woods of America. Bill was a stickler for details, every piece of history that he collected, he was certain to find all the information possible.
This blank is a piece of the Washington Horse Chestnut. This tree was the last of thirteen horse chestnut trees planted by George Washington. The age of the tree was confirmed when it was removed in 2004, this is definitely "witness wood". This particular tree was named by Washington as representing the colony of Georgia.
The blank comes with a certificate of authenticity provided to me by Bill Jewell, before his untimely death a couple years ago. This particular blank was professionally stabilized, that is the reason you see Bill's initials on one end.
This is truly a "one-of-a-kind" blank. I purchased it for $150., for the purpose of resale.
Now, it can be yours!!
Bidding is now open and we will close this auction Friday night--time tba!
