Pa gets his haircut in Marshall. Howard Horton has been cutting hair for a VERY long time. He is 91 years young (will be 92, Dec. 1st). He and my Pa have the best time! Rarely, I get to sit in on these moments. I didn't have a real camera with me, just my phone, so please excuse the poor photography.
This banjo was Howard's father's. His father worked for a blacksmith and traded two "hack wheels" for it. It wasn't new when he traded for it, so Mr. Horton estimates it to be "over a hunderd year old".
