Here is on old print that I got from my grandfather. It was in his bar way back when. I think they reproduced these things many times since the original. This print is in bad shape.

Hello Pete,

I also noticed that I don't think its plastic so its either real or resin. I think that we have a taxidermist in town and I might try and find him. He would probably know if its turtle bone or something else. Here is a picture of a break.

Anyone care to guess what it might be worth. I found it at a garage sale and paid $20 for it around five years ago. It's been in my attic ever since. Here are some more pics

It is lightly engraved with I guess ink rubbed in the cuts. The underside has some sort of mortar painted on it. I've been looking around the web for another example but can't find any.

Hello,

I've found some more info on Col. Proctor.

Proctor was a Freemason and a very good friend of Paul Revere. They both did alot of their revolutionary mischief together. Proctor was also present during the events that led to the Boston Massacre.
