1976 Franklin Mint Bicentenial Powderhorn made of the finest Baccarat Crystal, inlaid with solid sterling silver.

During Revolutionary time carved powderhorns were a highly regarded form of art. To help pass the time in the lull between battles and during the long winter encampments, soldiers inscribed their powderhorns with intricate designs. With a sharp knife, artistic skill and a creative imagination, a soldier could transpose a utilitarian object into a thing of beauty.

This commemorative features an original design created by the distinguished artist Isa Barnett, who has captured the heroic spirit of the patriots perservering during the bitter winter encampments to serve the cause of freedom.

This Franklin Mint Bicentennial Powderhorn is a reminder of the suffering endured by our forefathers in their struggles to achieve independence.

The design on the horn was created by the artist Isa Barnett. It is hand blown of Baccarat crystal and it is capped and banded in solid sterling silver with a sterling silver chain.

The beautiful horn is sparkling "Baccarat" crystal, and has a sterling silver lid on one end and a collar and chain on the other.

The National Historical Society, headquartered in Gettysburg, PA., was dedicated to bringing the significance of American history to all the people in the U.S. and to enrich their enjoyment and understanding of the events contributing to American freedom.

In keeping with this mission, the Society issued a medallic history of America. This history was recorded as a set of 100 medallic cachets, each recapturing one of the greatest events in America's past. Each cachet (envelope) carries a medal portraying the event it honors in authentic and historically accurate detail. Each stamped cachet is officially postmarked at the closest available post office to the site identified with the event on its exact anniversary date. To add to its historical value, each cachet bears a first-person account of the event commemorated, as reported by an actual eyewitness of the time. The eyewitnesses to these great events include some of America's most outstanding patriots.

The 100 events selected by the Society encompassed the entire history of America. To give the collection a feeling of immediacy, each of these events was depicted as it was actually seen and reported to an eyewitness to that event.

A special Certificate of Authenticity, bearing the signature of the Society's president, also accompanies the collection. To house and display the collection, a matched set of two custom-designed hardbound library albums was provided to each subscriber.
