Prehistoric Artifact Auction

We are very pleased to present the second offering of the "Best of the Gary Cuckler Collection". Over 25 years in the making, the Gary Cuckler Collection was comprised of some of the finest artifacts ever found. Gary will be remembered for his keen eye for quality. These are the final dispersals of this large and significant collection. Gary's fine Bannerstones, Birdstone, Axes and Pipes will anchor not only this sale, but our June sale as well. I know of no other assemblage of Bannerstones that surpasses the quality and presentation of the Cuckler Bannerstones. Other fine offerings include a quality consignment from the Dale and Betty Roberts Collection and a fine group of Slate Relics from the lifetime collection of Randy Ridenour. There is something for everyone in this auction.
