One long wall is filled with 898 different kinds of barbed wire collected over the years by the late Swift Jewell. Different manufacturers and eras of wire show its development through the
years.

Our neighbors out west have a substantial collection. Check it out.

Anyone remember the Echo Barbwire Museum in Phoenix? I found this tidbit while searching through some old newsletters. At the time this was the largest (solid) ball of bobwire known. Lyle Linch (curator) wrote a wire ID book also, Arizona’s New Testament Manual which featured 68 wires not in Glovers book at the time. If you have one for sale or trade, drop me a note.

The info is from The National Barbed Wire Trader – Dec. 1977 – Allison
