Robert and all Hammer Heads,
In retrospect, I didn't address everything in your last email.
I just checked the website where that information you mentioned was listed,
and I have no idea what that dealer's source was the history of his pieces.
As he states there, he did not buy his pieces

Yes.
The concern with hammers is a small subset of what is already a small
community of collectors.
The only true measure of wherther something is a hammer is the level of
legitness.

With no solid numbers whatsoever to back me up, I'd bet that there were far more
people actively collecting and concerned about
12 inches of hickory, 5 ounces of steel. Sorry, couldn't resist. ;-)

Good evening Folks,
It's been a long time, but I'd like to add something: To me--as I have
understood it for many years--a Hammer is nothing more than a meteorite that

Hello Robert,
To answer your direct question, no I have not seen the Hodges's stone.
However, in Dr. King's Meteorite Collection Catalog he listed the source of
his Sylacaga specimen as, and I quote:
