Happy Independence Day, everyone! Here's a few colonial items to remember the struggle for our country's founding! Pictured is a foot soldier's hanger, a sailor's single disc cutlass and a nice early tomahawk, all from the American Revolutionary War!

Thank you, Jim. Whenever I watch a fireworks display, I try to rememebr what it must have been like to face down cannon-shot!

Rick, that is amazing, but also tragic. I'm not a war-monger, but I have stong feelings about the American Revolution. Do you know in which battle your ancestor lost his limb?
