    I don't know about the history, came across this bunch of barbed wire the other day here in Wyoming and thought either I or someone else could use it in some type of crafts, possibly sell it and have a little pocket change.

    I never knew people collect this stuff and that there is a huge museum dedicated to it! Over 2,000 variations, wowzer!. Being told this, I'm researching....trying to get an idea of the average value ($ per foot), what type of wire this might be called, and to get a date as to how old it is.

    Thanks in advance to anyone that might help me with the information I'm seeking.
