Sword made from a swordfish bill
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Sword made from swordfish bill, with woven rope handle with remains of gilt in several spots, large red bow, and painted nautical scene. From left to right along the blade the painting shows a lighthouse, schooners, swordfish, seagull, flower, and a scroll with "Rena A. Percy", and date "July 19, 1908" towards the tip. Painting is peeling and flaking in some areas. On reverse, peeling paint remains near hilt but no evidence of painting on the rest of the blade. The Rena A. Percy was a schooner under Master Willis G.[E?] Bunker, with a crew of 14, (#200857?), either 78 or 46 Gross Tons, measuring 76.5/ 21.6/ 9.4. Built in 1904 in East Boothbay and used for dory trawling around Jonesport and elsewhere - (http://www.cranberryisles.com/photos/ci_notes.html - Cranberry Islands Notes by Chuck Liebow). Willis Bunker (1855-1915) was the uncle of donor's husband Linden "Tud" Bunker. Note states: "Sword came from Percy's house, Winslow Bunker's father." (In 2016, this would be the house owned by the Sullivan's.) [show more]
