I AM ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR COLLECTIONS OR SINGLE PIECES! IF YOU WANT TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR COLLECTION, OR SINGLE PIECES, THIS IS WHERE TO GO! I OFFER A VERY FAIR 70 - 80% OF YOUR ARTIFACT VALUES!
Hello fellow collectors, My name is Paul Frey, and I have been involved with the Indian artifact hobby for over 55 years! I handle mostly Pa. and north east artifacts, but will offer anything that's authentic and of interest. I have a 10 day any reason return, with a GUARANTEE of AUTHENTICITY. More time if requested, but after that, the artifact may be returned if deemed not authentic. Every artifact I sell is first examined for correct typological criteria, then microscopically examined for patination and weathering details. In my opinion, I believe the first two priorities an artifact must have, are authenticity, and verifiable provenance. Click on the photos to enlarge them. EXCLUSION: I do my best to describe each artifact as best as I can, noting field dings, breaks, glue residue, etc., however, I may miss one or two in larger lots. I do guarantee the authenticity however. In most cases, if you feel the need to return only one or two artifacts from a lot, I prefer to have the entire lot returned for a complete refund, rather than just a few pieces. On large field grade lots, it's easy to miss a few dings, but this can normally be seen in the photos. Please look at the photos carefully, and ask any questions prior to buying if your not sure, or you need a better description.
I also offer consignment sales of your artifacts, entire collections, or single pieces. Please contact me for details and rates. I offer collection appraisals and authentication of Pa. and north east artifacts. Email me for information, or any questions and concerns. And the only fair way to sell artifacts, is first come-first serve. If two people want the same piece, the first email or contact get's it.
I accept paypal, checks, M.O., cash, BUT, please note that I do not have checkout from the store. PLEASE EMAIL ME FOR INFORMATION ON ANY ARTIFACT YOUR INTERESTED IN, AND PAYMENT INFORMATION. PKFREY@HOTMAIL.COM. I consider REASONABLE offers on anything your interested in ! Thanks for looking!!
PLEASE NOTE: Unless prior arrangements are made, if payment isn't received within 7 days, I reserve the right to relist and sell any artifact.
I leave the shipping up to the buyer. Shipping rates are always increasing. I normally use First Class. Depending on weight, most items can be shipped First Class with a Tracking Number for between $4.50 - $6.00. If the buyer wants Priority, I use small flat rate at $7.90, or the current postal rates.

Please keep in mind, if you like the artifact from a photo, you will LOVE it when you hold it! The artifacts are ALWAYS much better in person vs. a photograph. And I am not the best photographer in the world.
GALLERY VIEW OF PENNSYLVANIA ARTIFACTS. Pa. isn't known to have a large quantity of pristine artifacts, mostly because we have a limited resource of the better cherts and flints. Jasper is the best, and most sought after, lithic material from Pa., and the occasional Flintridge or Ohio cherts that travelled into Pa. However, in years past, quality artifacts have been found when artifact hunting was in it's prime. This period was mostly in the early 1900s. Quality artifacts are hidden away in collections that are still in storage, and occasionally become available to the collector. Pa. was the home to prehistoric Native Americans from the Paleo Indian period ( ca. 12,000 BC ), to the Historic Period ( ca. 1770 ). Here are a few artifacts from my collection, and most of these were found prior to 1950, with the exception of my personal finds between 1962-1990. Represented are a selection of pottery vessels, jasper points, Perkiomen points, spears/knives, bannerstones, a complete soapstone vessel ( Md. ), gouges, Clovis points, and pipes. The photo of the single pipe is called the " John Koch pipe", with his original drawing when he found it. And a photo of one the nicest maskettes ever found. It's Clinton Co. pipestone with three fish incised on the back, and tallied around the entire edge. From Great Island, Clinton Co., Pa. The antler figurine is known as a " Sept. Morn Figure ", and is one of the finest ever recovered from N.Y. And a frame of Susquehannock trade beads and items from mostly Pa., and N.Y. That's my daughter, Marie. She has her own little " Indian Rocks " shelf in her room! My other daughter, Amanda, isn't a big rock collector. I'm sorry, but the gallery artifacts are for viewing, but will be for sale in the future. I'm not quite old enough to quit collecting, but soon!!!
POSTAGE NOTES: I try every chance I can to offer free shipping. I can not continue to do this. The post office has once again raised the rates, starting next week, Jan. 10th. I normally ship several ways. Bubble wrap envelope, considered a parcel, and shipping is determined by weight and destination. Or, small-medium-large priority flat rate. The postage increases are: Small flat rate: $9.45....Med. flat rate: $16.10....Large flat rate: $ 21.50 What I will do to alleviate some of this, because I want my buyers to continue buying, is a variable shipping cost.
All bubble wrap parcels: Buyer pays full shipping ( normally $4.75-$6.00). On all flat rates, the following:
From $1.00-$500.00-Buyer pays full shipping. $500.00-$1000.00-Buyer pays 50% of shipping.
From $1001.00 or more-Buyer gets free shipping. Thank You! Please address any complaints to the Post Office, and you should!!

( Collected in the 1930s. ( Dr. William Beauchamp? ). Excellent condition, no dings or damage to the wings. Here's two similar ones with auction results, $2900 and $3600.

GD 1-----Birdstone--GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC
If you want an authentic Birdstone, stay off ebay!! Due to the rarity of authentic examples, I only get one about every 5 years!! This one is banded slate, and reported from Lancaster Co., Pa. 3 5/8". Nice fading and a few indurations. Good deposits, excellent correct drilling, with reed marks. The top of the head was anciently broken, and salvaged to this form on an angle. Holes are correct for birdstones. Where the two holes intersect, the hole at that area is often much smaller than the hole going in. This is due to the fact that the holes were not completed using a reed. The reed would only be used to drill the hole part way. At the intersection the two holes were punched through with a copper awl, then slightly enlarged to accept cordage. It's very evident in this bird!! Comes with a John Berner, American Antiquities COA from March 2011.I thoroughly examined it myself and would pass it. GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC!!! Ex. Barry George

JR 6.....Lot, 3 nice items!
This lot includes a small hand held bowl, round game or un-notched bola stone, used in slingshot fashion possibly, and a small adze. One label is not legible, but I think these are all western NY. The bowl is not natural, but has been modified into the small bowl, 1 3/4" x 1 5/8".
The round piece is heavy. It's dense compact sandstone with a high inclusion of iron ( hematite ), Could be a gamestone, or an un-notched bola stone. About 2" in diameter.
The adze is nice, polished bit, and a heavy diorite material. 3 1/4".

SOLD......JR 16.... Horn rattle
This is a really cool piece! An artifact that has survived the ages! It's a salvaged powder horn, plugged at both ends. It has floral engraving on all the surfaces in the fashion of scrimshaw. Owned and carved by Arcalos Buell, April 12, 1757. I have done some research and Arcalos was from New London, Ct. Born in 1740. married Mary Buell in 1758, and in 1775 he was the Captain of the Ct. Regiment of soldiers and served time in the Revolutionary War!!
Arcalos is the surname and shortened version of Archeleus. The flower is carved from antler and attached with some really good pitch adhesive that survived. I'm holding this because I believe my consignor may have the original 14" handle. Information on this fellow and the Buell family can be found in the internet. Not priced yet, a significant artifact from the Rev. War era. Not sure what it's worth, but it's unique and one of a kind!!

I met Tim through his other passion, collecting Indian artifacts. He has a nice collection which he personally found in Schuylkill Co., Pa. Very easy going, calm nice guy, with an eye for detail and lots of patience!

TB 314/1 - Called, " 12,000 B.C. or " Fire in the Sky "... This depicts a Paleo Indian hunter heading back to his campsite from a long days hunt, in the early evening hours. Looking up, he catches a glimpse of the meteor or comet that will fall to earth, creating such an explosion, that caused the end and turning point between the Paleo Indians and eventually later Natives. This was the event that led to enough climate change to create the Younger-Dryas event, creating an extinction that wiped out the Clovis people, and all fauna and flora. This scene has no doubt been witnessed by the Paleo Indians, and it had to be scary and mysterious. What was he thinking in that moment!! This would be very similar to the Tunguska event over Siberia in 1908. I will let the the buyer and other viewers imagine what they see in this remarkable detailed painting. Size is 12" x 24".
TB 2 - " Halley's Comet - 1701"....... This scene depicts the last of the Native Americans, Delaware Indian, in the year 1781. He looks up from his skin and birchbark canoe to witness what he never saw before. A streak of fire scorching through the evening sky. The Native is wearing a detailed shoulder garment made from traded white mans cloth. The Milky Way is prominent in the center of the star lit sky. This is all reflected on the surface of the Delaware River, or maybe the Susquehanna River in Pa. Halley's comet was last seen in 2006, and returns every 75 - 76 years. 75 years after the dated scene of this painting, Halley's comet was identified for what it is. A huge conglomerate of ice, rocks, and gas. But in 1701, it must have been mysterious and part of the spiritual unknown. So much so that petroglyphs were carved by the Natives who witnessed this event into the rivers boulders, depicting a Thunder Fire Bird in the sky! An extremely detailed oil painting, and a wonderful, but with some imagination, an event that just must have left this Native in awe! Size is 12" x 24".
Both of these paintings will be framed, and shipped with insurance. These are the only two of their kind to ever be offered in originals. Sure to be an investment in the near future!

TB 315 - Visions in Stone. By Timothy Barr
This is a print of the original oil painting of historic Indians, those who inhabited the lower Susquehanna River in the 17th and 18th. century. This painting for viewing is owned and displayed with the Susquehanna paintings at the Zimmerman Center for Heritage at the Susquehanna Heritage Museum, 1706 Long Level Road, Wrightsville, Pa. 17368. Possibly Susquehannock or Shawnee Indian. The painting depicts two Indians who see an odd shape in the in the sky, and are pecking these shapes into boulders, and these petroglyphs are still visible today in the lower Susquehanna River. The shapes are actually a murmuration ( formation ) of hundreds of starlings. The reflections are incredible, and the water appears real enough to touch!! Masterfully detailed, and very accurate to what they were doing over 300 years ago! Just simply an excellent, true to life, detailed print!
I'm offering prints of this original. They will be limited edition to only 60 prints, each one signed and numbered. There's two sizes to choose from: 12 x 30, and 16 x 40. The prints are on canvas, but won't be framed. They are shipped rolled in a cardboard mailing tube. Shipping is included in the price. An excellent idea for a gift to hang next to those frames of artifacts!!!! I'm buying one for myself ! I've seen the original, and it's a type of painting with the subject matter that you just keep looking at!
12 x 30------ $225.00
16 x 40------ $275.00

TB 316 - " The Reed Gatherer " By Timothy Barr
This will be the last one offered in this series, for now. The prints of this original oil by Tim Barr portrays a Historic Indian, Shawnee?, gathering reeds from the Susquehanna River. Gathering reeds was a very important part of the Indians way of life. Used for arrow shafts, canoes, matting, etc. This print of the original painting is of a foggy morning, with the Indian in a tanned, hide covered, birchbark canoe. Excellent detail portraying the hard life style of the Indians in the 18th. century. This is an early morning scene with the mist of the fog just rising off the river!
These four Indian related originals, and prints, are the only four painted by Tim. Never before offered in prints. The original has already been sold and is proudly displayed. One size only for this print, which is a very generous 27 x 30. Again, limited prints to only 60, signed and numbered. I have seen these in person, and trust my judgement, these are absolutely the best paintings I have ever seen. So much attention has been given to details, and a wonderful blending of color.!! You won't be disappointed!! These are all true investment prints!
