Ex Rare American Revolution Signed Horseman’s Saber, Ex Flayderman Coll.. Here is the rarest of the rare when it comes to American Revolutionary War horseman’s sabers! It is the only recorded example of a horseman’s sword attributed to Pennsylvania cutler Josiah Wood and struck deeply with his mark on the blade’s ricasso. Ex Norman Flayderman collection and pictured in the most important reference for American Rev War swords; “Swords and Blades of the American Revolution”, by George Neumann, plate 314s. Josiah Wood contracted with the Committee of Safety for production of pikes during the Revolution. He is recorded in “Arms Makers of Colonial America” by Whisker, page 205. The Wood saber is constructed in the usual Rev War era 4 slot guard pattern, but the side bars are not straight, they are diamond shaped and the entire hilt is profusely decorated all over with 100’s of tiny differing punches. It is highlighted by the beautiful, tall decorated pommel. The original, twist carved, walnut grip is completely intact (no damage or cracking) as is the original brass grip wire (now slightly loose from natural wood grip shrinkage). The plain, flat, curved blade measures 33” and is deeply struck at the ricasso with Josiah Wood’s mark. It is in untouched, uncleaned condition with a deep aged patina. Only some mild pitting near tip. Sword is in overall excellent original condition! Signed American Rev War sabers are extreme rarities. A James Potter, NY horseman’s saber now brings about $25,000. Our Josiah Wood saber is considerably rarer (and absolutely gorgeous) compared to the plain black, non decorated Potter sabers. When you take into consideration that there are an estimated 30 + surviving examples of the James Potter sabers and only one known example of the Josiah Wood saber there is no comparison! This is truly the rarest of the rare! For the most advanced American Revolutionary collection or museum. If you want the best of the best and the rarest of the rare, here it is! Serious inquires only. Please state full name and location if you would like a response. We are only asking 25K on this great, museum quality, signed American Revolutionary War horseman's saber. About the same as the going price of a common James Potter horseman's saber. Don't let this pass you by. He who hesitates is lost!

Exquisite North Italian (Brescia) Flintlock Pistol, ca. 1650. This exceptional pistol represents the height of the gunmaker's art at a time when all the work was done by hand. It features a three-stage 15 3/8″ barrel of approximately .50 caliber, with central relief-carved Green Man face, the nose of which serves as a front sight; the ribbed breech signed “”, the world's premier barrel-making family of the 17th C. Lock plate chiseled in relief with Green Man face at the rear and Leda and the Swan forward of the hammer; the serpentine hammer chiseled in the round with warrior holding a shield and sword; frizzen with Green Man face. Forward of the pan is a small flat, signed “G. Bat./Frani Bcia” in script, for Giovanni Battista Francino (2nd?), Brescia. Expertly restored figured root walnut full stock with inset chiseled steel panels and mounts decorated with foliate scrollwork and additional grotesque mask motifs en suite with the barrel and lock, and chiseled and pierced winged grotesque-figure trigger, pierced trigger-guard finial, and a belt-hook. Wood ramrod with turned and chiseled steel tip. The metal smooth and chiseling crisp. The Green Man is often featured in classical art and architecture. Overall length 22 ½”. Flintlock pistols by Giovanni Battista Francino are featured in the Wallace Collection and the Victoria & Albert Museum, and this one is much nicer! It would be difficult to find a better quality flintlock pistol at any price. Provenance: the prestigious Norman Blank Collection.
