Interesting thoughts, people collect pretty much anything, from depression glass to Hopalong Cassidy memorabilia to Beanie Babies. I think antlers are pretty cool thing to collect. Not to take credit for the original harvest, but to admire and show and give the respect the game deserves. Was this rack better off in somones attic being eyed up by the local house mouse, or to be purchased by a "collector", (public or private) that appreciates its uniqueness, preserves it and displays it for others to admire? I have a feeling if you guys were multi millioneres, your ideas on what is acceptable to pay "top" dollar for and what wasnt, would be a bit different. Unfortunately, there is a fine line between collecting "unique" wildlife displays and the greed the sellers seem to aquire when cash is waved in front of them. Thats a whole different post all together.
