The condition of the Buffalo is important, original ones did not have much if any wear. That 1937 is pretty interesting done by a newer carver & sandblasted for that nice matte finish. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1913 is really nice and could be a valuable named one called Nostrildamas, as it has many of the features, ear over the brim, open nostril, similar nose & hat, and bow tie.
