Wisconsin Artifact Book

I am currently working on an artifact book dealing exclusively with Wisconsin artifacts. It's not going to be a typology sort so much as a picture... Lar Hothem sort of thing. I plan on covering in great photographic detail all the types of Wisconsin artifacts most commonly found. I'm going to include a section on stone, copper, ground stone, and pottery. I am currently in need of more pictures of some of the stone types, ground stone, and pottery. I have access to more than enough copper at this point. I would like to limit what is added to the book to just your personal finds unless you have good history on a piece. Any of you that have Wisconsin artifacts that you wouldn't mind sharing let me know. I will travel to take the pictures if need be. If you don't want to be identified in the book I can list your artifacts as private collectionor if you prefer give you credit. Thanks in advance-

P. Schanen

That's awesome, good luck on your research. ! I know how much work it is to do a reference book. The copper artifacts alone would make a great book.

You're not kidding. A lot of work but fun. If this turns out and I do get it published there may actually be a much more detailed verison on just copper to follow. One major project at a time!

Hey guys, still working on this book. Making good progress and I think it will turn out pretty nice. It's going to have a prietty heavy dose of copper stuff. Right now however I'm still looking for any and all examples of ceramics found in Wisconsin, just shards or partially reconstructed vessels... doesn't matter. I would like to see any you have. I am also still on the hunt for any and all ground stone tools, axes, bannerstones, anything you might have as long as there is solid provenance from Wis. If you have something please PM me! Thanks!
