September 19, 1959 - October 16, 2012

Tom Truetken was a digging buddy of mine. I was introduced to Tom by Rick Przygoda, another good friend of mine that I dig with. Tom was an avid artifact collector, fisherman, and golfer. He passed away on October 16, 2012 at the age of 53. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Talbot Clovis

Spencer co Indiana

This fine Clovis point was found by Harold Talbot in the early 1930s on the Gage Farm in Spencer Co Indiana. Harold passed this point along to his son, who in turn passed it along to me at the Owensboro Artifact Show August 4. 2019. This was once a much larger point and has been sharpened down to the size you see here in the pictures. It is strongly fluted both sides. It is a fantastic example with wonderful history.
