Antieque Horseshoe Embeded in a tree trunk - $250 - (Oak Harbor, OH)
25 years ago I purchased 12 acres from a 30,000 acre estate. I built a very nice hose ranch on it. I walked the trails and came across this tree with an very old (100 yrs old) rusted Workhorse Shoe totally embedded in the truck. On another day I went back to it with chain saw and cut the tree down. I cut out a section about a foot above the shoe and another foot below it. The trunk section is 28 inches long and 3.5 inches wide. The shoe is 6 inches wide and about 6.5 inches long.My plan was to make a rustic table lamp out of it. Well that was 25 years ago and I never got around to completing the project. If this item is sold quickly on e-bay I will drill out the trunk mount a fancy base to it and run wiring thru it and mount a 3 way socket and put a fancy shade on it. At that point I will relist it and sell it for $500. SELLING IT UNFINSHED FOR $250.00 NOW!
