Contemporary Powder Horns by Art DeCamp "For Sale":
Original Antique Horns and Horn Items.
Late Philadelphia Screw-tip Horn w/Black Painted Butt: This Late Philadelphia horn is a very slim and graceful style. These circa 1790 to 1810 horns are always a fine and sophisticated appearing item. This horn has an internal screw tip with applied collar to reinforce the spout of the horn and provide a strap retention bulge on the spout end. The turned stopper in the spout of this horn is patterned after an original stoper. The turned maple wood butt is painted satin black and has a cherry wood button that is friction fit to the tapered hole in the butt. This button is satin black also. The authentic design of this horn is taken from horns in Chapter 2 of my book "PA Horns of The Trade".
The horn measures approximately 12-3/4" across and 2-3/16"" diameter at the butt. It has nice curve and twist. This horn can be carried on either side due to its strap attachment setup.
Price $370.00, plus $15.00 for postage.

Early Philadelphia Screw-tip Horn w/Horn Band:
Late Philadelphia Screw-tip Horn w/Dark Red Painted Butt:
Early Philadelphia Screw-tip Horn w/Horn Band: This Early Philadelphia horn is a close replica of an original that is in my collection. I chose to enhance this horn by adding the horn band at the butt end. These circa 1760 to 1780 horns are historic and correct for both French & Indian War and Revolutionary period firearms. The horn band applied at the butt is taken from other iriginals I have examined and effectively "upgrades" this horn to and officer's model. This horn has an internal screw tip with applied collar to reinforce the spout of the horn. Tip and collar are very close copies of the unique original tip on the horn in my collection. The turned cherry wood butt has the rope carving and low dome shape of the original.
The horn measures approximately 13" across and 2-15/16"" diameter at the butt. It has nice curve and twist. This horn can be carried on either side due to its on-center strap attachment setup.
Price $460.00, plus $15.00 for postage.
Late Philadelphia Screw-tip Horn w/Black Painted Butt:
Virginia / North Carolina Banded Horn with Pinned-tip:
Virginian / North Carolina Banded Horn with Pinned-tip: I made this horn from ideas and features seen on horns from the south central part of Virginia and down further into the North Carolina areas. It has a caramel colored turned tip that is pinned onto the horn. There are two caramel colored horn bands centered on the body of the horn which has natural black and caramel coloring also. At the butt end of this horn is a pewter band that I poured and then turned to fit and shape. It nicely offsets the maple wood butt that has "beehive" turning with the coves accented with black paint. The turned and threaded button at the tip of the butt serves as the strap attachment point and unscrews to make filling the horn with powder easier.
The horn measures approximately 11" across and 2-1/8"" diameter at the butt. It has curve and twist. This horn can be carried on either side due to its on-center strap attachment setup.
Price $390.00, plus $15.00 for postage.
Smaller Lehigh / Northampton Screw-tip Horn:
Smaller Lehigh / Northampton Screw-tip Horn: This Lehigh / Northampton screw-tip horn is patterned after several that have turned up around the Allentown, PA area. It is a smaller horn that will go nicely on a narrower hunting pouch. The horn has golden brown coloring and a high domed maple butt with integral button for the strap.
The horn measures approximately 9-1/2" across and 2-3/16" diameter at the butt. It has fairly straight for a nice fit on the pouch. This horn can be carried on either side due to its strap attachment setup.
Price $355.00, plus $15.00 for postage.
