APACHE TUSS

[cactusjumper]

These are a few of my personal treasures. The books are all signed first editions, but the Apache Tuss is in a different category altogether:

I have a certificate of authenticity, dating it to around 1890. Anyone have an idea of what it might be worth?

Thanks,

Stefen,

This is an Apache jug made from woven plant fiber. They would then coat them with pine tar to make them waterproof. It worked very well.

Take care,

Joe
