Point ID help

Re: Point ID help

Not sure what the first big point is or the long skinny.Thinking the next two are Edwards and Frio.The next is a perforator/engraver dont know the point name.Next is Bulverde?And next is Fairland bird point?

Re: Point ID help

maybe a marshall for the first one and I pretty much agree with the the others

Re: Point ID help

The first point and engraver are both marshal points. Look like stuff from my neck of the woods. Nice.

Re: Point ID help

My guess is they are artifacts.

Re: Point ID help

Hal,can u help?

Re: Point ID help

Well I'll try but I always defer to the big guns if they chime in !

No question mark [ ? ] after the nice Bulverde.

Majority rules on Marshall for the big boy and the perferator.. . .BUT. . . .IF they were mine . . . I would lean to a WILLIAMS, based on not much [ none ] of a basal " uppercut ".

Those nice Edwards look pretty robust for the classic delicate bird points. Maybe some interbreeding with the Edgewood family ?

Re: Point ID help

Them aint Castrovilles?

Re: Point ID help

Those aren't Casty's that G-Towndigger posted. Casty's are straigt across along the base and Marshals have somewhat of a fluted base like pictured above. Sound about right?

Re: Point ID help

whats the straight skinny one? Its only 2" long and very thin.

Re: Point ID help

I have found many artifacts that look like this in a darl mound. without a better look its really hard to tell. Maybe just a tip reworked.

Re: Point ID help

I thought Williams had more of a rounded base.These are squared?

Re: Point ID help

anyone?

Re: Point ID help

If you are able too I would find a few more examples from that particular camp and you should come across a few that are more identifiable. Sometimes things get muddy between castros, marshalls, williams, etc.. May be that they are some sort of a transition point or just an indian that didn't get the memo on how to make this kind of point.

Re: Point ID help

Bill...I believe that you are correct about Williams having more of a rounded base in my book.
The next to last point on the 1st row appears to be a version of a Frio, considering that it isn't a birdpoint.

Re: Point ID help

Thats what i was thinking,either a Frio or Edwards.
