Some very beautiful horns.
 
When you look at the craftsmanship of the men that built these it’s amazing. Valley Forge is about 15 min from my house and I took my granddaughter there for a little lunch outing in the 105 degree heat for a history tour for her, she loves history at 9 go figure.

This is great! BTW, there was a famous PA rifle stolen up that way back in the 70's, I think, which was recovered sometime in the recent past. Might have been a Beck? I think it's in the Museum of the Rev now at 3rd St. in Philly.
 
There is a lot more Rifles Pistols swords Bayonets everyday items upstairs and more, It truly is a treasure trove. I wish everyone could enjoy the Park. I am glade you all enjoyed the pics.
 
It's been quite a while since I have been to Valley Forge. However, I have seen all the firearms at the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia, and the great hall in Williamsburg. Also, the Museum of the West in Cody, Wyoming.
There is a small collection on the New Jersey side of the Delaware river, near Washington's Crossing. It deserves a look.
 
I should visit there again. Last time I only had about 30 minutes inside. It is only 15 minutes from my house also. I do remember a wall of rifles and the likes and thought the same as your granddaughter.
