Located at Grassmyer’s Warehouse. Turn off Rt. 22-522 in McVeytown, PA at traffic
light intersection; go across bridge and RR tracks. Go ½ mile to top of hill to 10 Old
Schoolhouse Lane. Look for sign to sale site.
Will be selling thousands of arrowheads and spearheads ranging from the earliest Paleo period
to the latest Woodland period. Mostly from Pennsylvania, and a lot of good examples from
other states including New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Missouri and the South West.
Forrest has been pictured in the 1976 edition of Who’s Who in Indian Relics #4. He has hunted
arrowheads for 55+years and has purchased many small local collections.
Forrest was 12 years old when he picked up his first arrow head. He was in a wagon husking
corn and his grandma picked one up. She told him he should be able to find them, his eyes are
closer to the ground than hers. He has been picking them up ever since.
