Wooden Meerschaum pipe with synthetic gold colored stem and brass metal decoration. Reported to be owned by Annie Oakley and includes two letters of the history of ownership. Letters state "Purchased circa 1898 by Annie (Sunshine) Oakley and presented to a boxer who used it for a time and then gave it to Oneida Terry, foster daughter of Annie Oakley (Oneida Terry's father was a rider in Oakley's show). Mrs. Terry, who lived in Modesto, Ca., gave the pipe to Rolling Thunder about 1959. Rolling Thunder kept the pipe until 1969 at which time he gave it to Mr. C.R. Edwards of Oroville. Mr. Edwards kept the pipe until March 1980 when he gave it to John Harrington of California."
