On his BLOG Robert Weil in 1973 he started
collecting images of the work contemporary “American makers’ that included the
worker of ‘horners’, powder horn makers in particular. His challenge was
to record contemporary gun work was daunting. Gathering material was difficult
and time consuming. Few makers thought that there was any value in published
documentation of their work. However, electronic publishing has changed all
that. Having a website or having one's work available to view on the internet
is becoming a necessity. For anyone interested in horn as a material and the
part it played in various traditions Robert Weil’s BLOG is joy to rummage
within.
The images here are but a tiny taste!
