Our Pottery Sherd State Collection updated 9/5

Earlier this year my wife and I decided we wanted to collect pottery sherds from other states.We have about a dozen personal finds from here in central IL. We were able to obtain MO and ND at the Collinsville show. Then we turned to the internet, and through the amazing generosity of fellow headhunters, our collection has grown rapidly. We are making our own cases and so far have fourteen cases done.
We have 25 States so far,
IL, MO, ND, KS,MN, PA, NY, NJ, SC, GA, MS, OH, KY, IN, LA,CO,NV, UT,
NM and MEXICO, we need a few more from AR, AL, VA, NE, IA, FL.

BUMP!!!

It has been awhile since we have been able to add to the collection. We are at 41 states. Seems like these last 9 states might have to be something besides pottery. Maybe some flint pieces. Maybe local cherts or materials from these states.
If there is anybody from one of these states out there please let me know if you have ever found any pottery pieces!!!
VT, NH, MA, DE, MI, WY, WA, AK, HI.
And CANADA.

We received an awesome gift today. These amazing pieces all the way from Ontario. Thanks so very much to GlennC for these beautiful pieces. The designs are just so cool. Some of these look so similar to designs you would see from some of our southern states like Georgia. Very special, Thanks so very much. sixeight IMG_3028.JPG IMG_3029.JPG USNationalCountyColor52d.jpg
