Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Old John Brown left Kansas
Before the blood had dried
And as he rode his head did shine
Like the sun in mid-July
In a tiny farm house
By Brunswick Piano
He warmed his boots by the fireplace
And read aloud from Samuel
'David rose
To beat the Philistines
With five smooth stones
And a sling'
