(I was asked to show some of my older pieces so I'm going to bump up a few of my posts so they can see them rather than post them again)
I don't know if I've posted these here before or not, but these are about the extent of my Paleo collection from my area.
Everything in this tray is from the same site except the 4 Points in the top left of the first picture and the 3 in the top right of the 2nd picture. Of the 4 on the left, the first one I got in trade years ago and was found in Ada, Ohio. The one right next to it I got out of a "junk box" at the Flea Market for $1 and it is fluted and ground on the base. The other two are from St Paul, Ky and personal finds. The 3 on the top right are 2 casts and a repro. The white and yellow ones I got from Tom Westfall and are casts of point he has found. The white one is a Jimmy Allen Point and the yellow one I think he said was a Plainview. The gray one is just a repro that I used for filler.
The 5 points in the 3rd picture and the gray Blade 5th from the left in the 1st picture, along with all the Scrapers and Tools are all from the same site located in Haverhill, Ohio and is one of the very few actual Paleo sites known of in my area. There was a really nice Clovis found there about 10 years ago and the little brown point 2nd from the right in the 3rd picture is a heavily reworked Clovis point that is fluted almost to the tip on one side and nicely ground on the base and the only Clovis I have ever found. There is also a broken Pine Tree, a Decataur with a Spokeshave on it, and a small Lance type in the center of picture #2 that were found there.
I'll post some close ups of some of the points and few other pieces from there in the next post.
