Map powder horn book recommendations?

[Jason Jablonski]

I am interested in making a map powderhorn. Being a newbie and not having been in the hobby long and not seen many to study, I was wondering if anyone can recommend a book(s) that may cover them? Or any online resources that may be helpful?

Thank you in advance,

Jason

An inexpensive book showing drawings of many map horns. Hartley was my great uncle. https://www.amazon.com/Hartley-Horn-Drawings-Collection-Powder/dp/B004DJCPV6

You can download a copy of American Engraved Powder Horns: A Study Based on the J. H. Grenville Gilbert Collection here: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/metpublications/American_Engraved_Powder_Horns

Be careful though--the pdf may convince you to hunt down a paper copy!
