THIS IS A PICTURE FRAME MADE FROM A WINDOW CASING TAKEN OUT OF THE BOYHOOD HOME OF GENERAL NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST WHEN THE WERE RESTORING THE CABIN. THE PICTURE FRAME IS MADE OF YELLOW POPLAR, IT WAS MADE BY ED BUTLER, ONE OF THE CRAFTSMEN THAT WAS DOING THE RESTORATION. THEY TRIED TO REPURPOSE EVERY PIECE OF WOOD THAT COULD NOT BE REUSED IN THE CABIN. ED MADE THE FRAME IN 2003. I HAVE HAD IT FOR OVER 20 YEARS, IT FRAMED MY NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST FAMILY PHOTO DISPLAY SIGN, WHICH I HAD ON DISPLAY SENCE 2002, NOW THAT I HAVE SOLD THE DISPLAY, I REMOVED THE SIGN FROM THE FRAME. IT IS NOW TIME FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO OWN IT. THE DIMENSIONS ARE 24" X 30", IT WILL HOLD A PICTURE 23" X 18 7/8", THE FRAME IS 2 1/2 " X 1", IT HAS A WIRE WHERE IT WAS HUNG WHEN I RECEIVED IT, WHICH CAN BE REMOVED AND TURNED IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. ALL THE INFORMATION I HAVE GIVEN IS ENGRAVED ON THE BACK OF THE FRAME BY MR. BUTLER.
I KNOW THE PICTURES ARE KINDA HARD TO SEE, BUT THEY ARE OF THE ENGRAVING DONE BY MR. BUTLER.
THERE WERE ONLY 2 OF THESE MADE BACK IN 2003, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYMORE MADE, THEY ARE A TREASURE, JUST THINK HOW OFTEN THE YOUNG FORREST LEANED OUT, AND PROBABLY CLIMED OUT OF THIS WINDOW. IF IT DOESN'T SELL I HAVE A FORREST PRINT I WILL PUT IN IT!
I AM GOING TO PAY SHIPPING, AND INSURANCE.
