WOODLAND STEMMED
ILLINOIS
This pretty relic came from the Bruce Filbrandt Collection and is made from a beautifully patinated glossy material. It shows nice use wear and good edge work. This is a great choice for any Woodland collection or anyone looking for a colorful midwestern artifact to add to their collection.
The last picture shows the group as a whole. Keep in mind when buying you will only be getting the point pictured on its own. We took the group photo as a means to save the collection history.
COLLECTION HISTORY
Bruce Filbrandt was a well respected member of the artifact community, having been apart of numerous artifact societies and even hosting the Starved Rock Show in LaSalle, Illinois. He was well known for his hardstone collection, even writing the book Keokuk Axes with many of his personal axes photographed and sketched for the publication. Bruce sadly passed away June 22, 2025 and his collection was sold. Jeff Hipskind was kind enough to sell us this relic and the entire color frame from Bruce's collection. We will be working on a tribute page for Bruce and is fabulous collection in the coming weeks with the help of Jeff Hipskind. We hope to preserve the history of these relics digitally as we do with many of our collection acquisitions. You will be able to find it in our Artifact Museum-Private Collections section of our website The Authentic Arrowhead Store.
