Thats a nice frame, likely represents more than a few miles in the fields. Some nice looking materials.

Nice looking pieces and frame Johnny. I'd hazard a guess and say that's a Futral case! He makes some good ones either way. I bought 3 - 12" X 18" poplar ones at the last show in Opelika, AL. I haven't forgotten about the one coming up in January next year. Remind us all here if you will when it get's closer.

The building has sold and they are looking for another location most likely will be 2022 before next Futral show

Thank you for sharing those. Like dognose said, a collection like that must have put you on the hunt for a long, long time.
The many miles of walking and tracking and grid-surface inspection it takes to even find one piece of an artifact like those can not be appreciated, unless you’ve worked your back, legs and eyes to the point of exhaustion and went home with nothing more times than not.
