Pantograph and a coloring book for the witch / horse.
A pantograph or even tracing paper can be used to copy a line drawing onto another piece of paper or flat stone.
But with both methods, you will only wind up with a 2-d copy, whereas the stones are 3-d "almost" copies.
That would require a duplicator, which is like a pantograph, but allows a 3 dimensional copy to be made. Even something like a statue.
Before children's books like "bobby the horse" there were much older works of art, depicting horses with the same simplicity as modern day coloring books.
Religious paintings, dating back to earlier Christian and Muslim eras, as well as works like 100 Horses by Fr. Giuseppe Castiglione SJ 1688-1766 featured similar horse depictions (especially Castiglione's sketches done prior to painting). Simple drawings, such as those on the H/P stone was all that was required to convey the concept of both as servants of the holy faith. In this case though, extra symbolism has been added to each depiction in order to convey a particular message.
Peralta Tesora Mappa for the trails.
Which came first? The Trail Stones or the PTM.
I believe the PTM is simply a poorly done copy of the trail stones, originally owned and probably made by Al Morrow.
It was posted on FB in 2013, and when I asked the poster about it, he answered that what he posted was actually a photo from Garman of Al's map which Al had used for his own searching.
Then some added flair - of course.
Who was it that said " A well appointed church" ?
But there is a lot of stuff on those stones which, to a servant of the holy faith, would give a great deal of information.
What would it take for you, Wayne, to be convinced it was carved by under tumlinsons hand or his "associates" ?
A video of him or his "associates" actually carving the stones....in the front yard of his mother's house....with an electric drill or dremel tool.
In a court of law - you need 7 discrepancies or similarities to what you want to prove.
There are way more than 7
It was a gravestone maker/cowboy from back east.
It was Ted DeGrazia
It was Clarence Mitchell....but I don't think hardly anyone still believes that, since we have known for a while that TT was a real person, and it was really Travis Marlow who was a fake.
It was Tom K., which I never believed anyway, cause I've seen a couple of rocks he DID make, and he don't carve worth s--t......Just kidding Tom...don't shoot !
I could probably find a couple more, but I'm too tired to look.
Then there's the "who found them's"
It was a Doc Rosecrans (he confessed)
It was a Mexican hole digger
and on and on it goes.....
