This point was from the collection ofJeb Taylor. Mr. Taylor is a well-known, very knowledgeable collector who was from Buffalo, Wyoming. It was acquired byScott Swanger of Shelby, Ohio in the mid 1990's who papered it with Greg Perino. He later consigned part of his collection (with this point) to John Byrd of Piedmont, SC.
