Hello,
Would love your thoughts identifying what this handmade wood object is and itās approximate age. We bought at an antique market outside of Cincinnati (seller picked it up at an Indiana barn sale but didnāt know what it was.) itās carved from one piece of hickory (?), 27ā long with crude marks And old nails along the pole, a hook at one end and a heavy weight embedded into the large end and a horseshoe with a cord that slides up & down the pole. Could it be a fur traderās hide scale or something from a pioneer trading post? Or something else Value?
Thanks in advance. - Linda
