so..i turned this up at a yard sale...woman said she could not get her mercedes started...and no one else could either...i love the ones no one can fix...i go over, open the hood, and pump up the injector pump germans put the hand pump on there for somethin', right? so then varoom...everyone looks at me like i am a magician....she had run out of fuel and it would never start...big duh!

she gives me this old handle for a walking stick...what a dandy piece...(literally)
turns out the name engraved is ex-sheriff of arapho county in colorado...1892-95? took part in the city hall war...
and here i was thinking about cutting it up till i researched some...it measures 4 5/8's across the top...5 inchs tall...

Good find there Gringo. Your situation brings 2 things to mind: it always pays to do a good deed and a feller just never knows what he may find lurking around out there!

Have you ever thought of putting a price on it??

Acts of kindness are always repaid, in some way. Good man, gringo !
