Michael's quoted statement is inaccurate. (Kindly note that my comment
and his quote are both unrelated to the stone being sold in the ad).

Many nice collectors asked me about this, and I am sorry my own
challenges didn't allow me to answer most. I had nothing to do with the
sale, and am now crying my eyes out over the billowin' crinolines on
Maryann's flip side.

Kindest wishes in the New Year,

Doug

STONE


Greetings all,
I now own the only House Hitter hammer stone from the
Ash Creek fall. If you recall, there were two grave yard stones,
One damn stone, one barn stone and one house stone.

( The barn stone was coupled with the stone that fell at
the feet of the barn owner who at first thought his girlfriend
Was teasing him by tossing a rock near him - The two stones
Which together totaled about 51grams, sold in an ad hoc auction
by phone. The Winning bidder paid $4,600 for the two. The seller
Would not sell either separately).

While I certainly would love to keep this entire house hitter,
My finances demand I sell it. I could make more cutting it up,
but it is one of the more impressive specimens I have seen and
Will be heartbroken if I have to "slice and dice" this beauty. Note
The embedded grit of the roof shingle on the "face" of the stone.
It is 124 gr. See it here from 4 different angles:

Serious offers only, please. Off line, of course.
Best wishes, Michael
