The Bud Goodwin Collection is certainly an awesome collection. On a side note I see that he had a large number of so called "Cobbs Blades". Something I have never understood: Since the Cobbs Blade is believed to be a preform why is it listed as a "Type" ???Michigan Yooper

I think people are split on Cobbs. Some people swear that Cobbs are simply unnotched dovetails and other early archaic points, but there are plenty of Cobbs that are beveled and resharpened. (And most Cobbs aren't something you can just notch and end up with a classic Dovetail/Lost Lake or Thebes point, they would need a lot of rework from that wide base down to the right base. Nor can you fill in the notches and end up with a Cobbs shaped blade.)

Thanks Joshua, I don't think the Cobbs Blade is a preform and you make a good argument. Just to add a little to your argument: Caches of Cobbs Blades have been found. It makes no sense to me that someone would knapp a large number of very fine thin Cobbs blades and leave them unfinished.

So, for a guy who’s never bought an artifact, would this be a good example of a trusted, authentic collection?
i looked long and hard at some of that stuff, and was thinking about bidding on some of it. Some of the things I know I’ll never see here, but would love to own an example of...Wandering wherever I can, mostly in Eastern Arkansas, always looking down.

BI was wondering if it says $10 on screen and then you bid does that mean you pay $20? Or do you just type total bid . Does that make any sense? I’ve never done a auction beforeNW Georgia,

Not sure. I think you can start with a bid of 10

If it is like an ebay auction, wait until the final 15 seconds or so to bid. Bid the highest amount of money you are willing to spend, like $100. If the guy who was second place bid $50, you pay $50. On ebay, you pay what the second place loser was going to pay.

Hey Ron...just foolin about. Its an omar that I was given a while back. It now serves as a dragonfly/butterfly waterer in the flowers. When I looked at #397 and read the description it made me laugh a bit.
