And there was a gentleman in Fairbanks who made these replicas of the curling stone for them to carry to go to the first U.S. Women's National in Wisconsin, in 1959, I believe.
APPRAISER: It is fashion.
It is sport, but make it fashion.
GUEST: Yeah.
APPRAISER: So, it's made of fiberglass.
GUEST: Correct.
APPRAISER: And it's got a, uh, magnet closure.
And it's painted, and it looks just like a stone.
GUEST: The article said it was an exact replica, which I believe they're 42-pound granite stones.
It's very similar, just the weight is different.
APPRAISER: Just, just a little bit, yeah.
GUEST: (chuckling): Just the weight, yeah.
APPRAISER: At auction today, $1,000 to $1,500.
GUEST: Wow, you're kidding.
That's amazing.
APPRAISER: It's fabulous.
