horns

[rogerpjr]

Anyone know where I can get some GOOD white to cream color horns for scrimshaw and early 1700s style powder horns? The stuff that Track and October Country have just isn't the greatest. Used to be able to buy them anytime out of boxes at Friendship, but new hornless cow raising methods and import restrictions from England has made them scarce.
