Frame Display with Black and White Felt Backing

Description Below
    I have always loved this display.  It is a simple design that is black on white felt.  The two round disks on the side are gaming pieces.  The top two pipes are stone, the bottom left pipe is wood and the bottom right pipe is pottery.  The center piece is placed on white so it stands out.  The material is tiger agate from Wyoming.  It is a deeply serrated and very fragile point.  I have only seen two other points like this.  Both of the others were in Hutchings museum in Lehi, Utah.  Both of them came from around Utah lake and were said to be gaming trade pieces.
This display has had some water damage as can be seen on the left side.  It has been redone and a new picture should be up soon.
