It also hosted NCAA basketball games as well as events such as concerts, the Ringling Brothers circus and Disney on Ice. The Aud was renovated in 1970 and 1990, and it closed in 1996 after the Sabres', Bandits', and Blizzard's seasons ended. It remained vacant until the city demolished it in 2009.

Buffalo soldiers were African American soldiers who mainly served on the Western frontier following the American Civil War. In 1866, six all-Black cavalry and infantry regiments were created after Congress passed the Army Organization Act. Their main tasks were to help control the Native Americans of the Plains, capture cattle rustlers and thieves and protect settlers, stagecoaches, wagon trains and railroad crews along the Western front.
Who Were the Buffalo Soldiers?
No one knows for certain why, but the soldiers of the all-Black 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments were dubbed “buffalo soldiers” by the Native Americans they encountered.
One theory claims the nickname arose because the soldiers’ dark, curly hair resembled the fur of a buffalo. Another assumption is the soldiers fought so valiantly and fiercely that the Indians revered them as they did the mighty buffalo.
Whatever the reason, the name stuck, and African American regiments formed in 1866, including the 24th and 25th Infantry (which were consolidated from four regiments) became known as buffalo soldiers.

Buick is a division of the American automobile manufacturer General Motors. Named for automotive pioneer David Dunbar Buick, it was among the first American marques of automobiles established in 1908.
For much of its existence in the North American market, Buick has been marketed as a premium automobile brand, selling luxury vehicles positioned above GM's mainstream brands, while below the flagship luxury Cadillac division.
Buick produced 21,217 vehicles in 1914. There was a single series, the Series B, but it came in a variety of flavors. The Model B-24 and B-25 were offered in roadster or touring configurations with a 165 cubic-inch four-cylinder 22 horsepower engine. The B-35, B-37, and B-38 were available in Roadster or Touring configurations with a 221 cubic-inch four-cylinder 35 horsepower engine. The B-38 was the first in Buick’s history as a fully enclosed coupe vehicle. The top of the line Buick in 1914 was the Model B-55. It was powered by a six-cylinder 331 cubic-inch 48 horsepower engine, the first Buick vehicle to be powered by a six-cylinder engine.
These blanks are made from the hickory wooden wheel spokes of Buick Series B cars. The Buick Series B wheels were in production from 1914 to 1924. The wood is certified and distributed by Hardin Penworks, LLC. This material is guaranteed to be 100% Authentic.

Busch Memorial Stadium, also known as Busch Stadium II, was a multi-purpose sports facility in St. Louis, Missouri, that operated for 40 years, from 1966 through 2005.
The stadium served as the home of the St. Louis Cardinals National League baseball team for its entire operating existence, while also serving as home to the National Football League's Cardinals team for 22 seasons, from 1966 through 1987, as well as the St. Louis Rams during part of the 1995 season. It opened four days after the last baseball game was played at Sportsman's Park (which had also been known since 1953 as Busch Stadium).
The stadium was designed by Sverdrup & Parcel and built by Grün & Bilfinger. Edward Durell Stone designed the roof, a 96-arch "Crown of Arches". The Crown echoed the Gateway Arch, which had been completed only a year before Busch Stadium opened. It was one of the first multipurpose "cookie-cutter" facilities built in the United States, popular from the early 1960s through the early 1980s.
Its final event was the sixth game of the 2005 NLCS on October 19. The stadium was demolished by wrecking ball in late 2005 and part of its former footprint is occupied by its replacement stadium—the new Busch Stadium (a.k.a. Busch Stadium III), located just south.

2014 US Mail stamps honoring C. Alfred "Chief" Anderson, paired with a graphic flying Red Tailed Aircraft label
27/64" tubed blanks are for Sierra Clones
3/8" tubed blanks are for Bolt Action pens
Custom Tube sizes available upon request.
Charles Alfred Anderson Sr., was an American aviator who is known as the Father of Black Aviation. He earned the nickname "Chief" as chief flight instructor of the Tuskegee Airmen.
All black military pilots who trained in the United States trained at Griel Field, Kennedy Field, Moton Field, Shorter Field and the Tuskegee Army Air Fields. They were educated at the Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University), located near Tuskegee, Alabama. Of the 922 pilots, five were Haitians from the Haitian Air Force and one pilot was from Trinidad. It also included a Hispanic or Latino airman born in the Dominican Republic.
The 99th Pursuit Squadron (later the 99th Fighter Squadron) was the first black flying squadron, and the first to deploy overseas (to North Africa in April 1943, and later to Sicily and other parts of Italy). The 332nd Fighter Group, which originally included the 100th, 301st and 302nd Fighter Squadrons, was the first black flying group. It deployed to Italy in early 1944. Although the 477th Bombardment Group trained with North American B-25 Mitchell bombers, they never served in combat. In June 1944, the 332nd Fighter Group began flying heavy bomber escort missions and, in July 1944, with the addition of the 99th Fighter Squadron, it had four fighter squadrons.
The 99th Fighter Squadron was initially equipped with Curtiss P-40 Warhawk fighter-bomber aircraft. The 332nd Fighter Group and its 100th, 301st and 302nd Fighter Squadrons were equipped for initial combat missions with Bell P-39 Airacobras (March 1944), later with Republic P-47 Thunderbolts (June–July 1944) and finally with the aircraft with which they became most commonly associated, the North American P-51 Mustang (July 1944). When the pilots of the 332nd Fighter Group painted the tails of their P-47s red, the nickname "Red Tails" was coined. The red markings that distinguished the Tuskegee Airmen included red bands on the noses of P-51s as well as a red rudder; the P-51B and D Mustangs flew with similar color schemes, with red propeller spinners, yellow wing bands and all-red tail surfaces.
The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African-American military aviators in the United States Armed Forces. During World War II, black Americans in many U.S. states were still subject to the Jim Crow laws and the American military was racially segregated, as was much of the federal government. The Tuskegee Airmen were subjected to discrimination, both within and outside the army.

The Cadillac V-63 is a large luxury automobile that was introduced in September 1923 by Cadillac as a 1924 model, replacing the previous Type 61. It used the GMC platform a rear wheel drive automobile chassis used by General Motors for its full-sized cars from 1925 through 1984.
The V-63 used an improved version of the L-head V8 engine that made Cadillac famous. The main innovation was a cross-plane crankshaft which improved balance and smoothness. The most noticeable update for 1925 was the introduction of two classifications of body style choices. The naming convention was refreshed for 1926 as the Series 314 signifying the engine displacement, with a further enlargement to 341 in 1928.
The first displacement upgrade to the Cadillac V8 was introduced in 1928, the first change since the engine was introduced in 1915. While the internal designation was now known as the Series 341-A. The car was advertised simply as "The New Cadillac" along with the introduction of LaSalle junior companion brand and was the first time there were more than one product line from Cadillac.

California Memorial Stadium is an outdoor football stadium on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley in Berkeley, California. Commonly known as Memorial Stadium, it is the home field for the University of California Golden Bears of the Pac-12 Conference. The venue opened in 1923 and currently seats around 63,000 fans for football. The playing field runs NW-SE, at an elevation of 410 feet (125 m) above sea level. It has been named one of the top college football stadiums by various publications, and it was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on November 27, 2006.
Memorial Stadium was funded from public contributions, as a memorial to Californians who lost their lives in World War I (1917–18). The chair of the architectural committee was John Galen Howard, the university's chief architect, and his influence is evident in the stadium's neoclassical motif. In addition to its unique architecture, the stadium's position at the foot of the Berkeley hills provides top row spectators with panoramic views of San Francisco Bay and west side viewers with views of the Berkeley Hills and Strawberry Canyon. This has earned it a reputation as one of the most scenic venues in college football.
Traditionally, during all football games and especially during the Big Game against Stanford, the hill overlooking the eastern side of Memorial Stadium attracts spectators hoping to watch a game for free, earning the nickname "Tightwad Hill".

The Camp David, officially known as Naval Support Facility Thurmont, is a secluded retreat located in Catoctin Mountain Park, Maryland. It serves as a country residence for the President of the United States, offering a private and secure location for relaxation, strategic discussions, and diplomatic meetings.
Established in 1938 as a Works Progress Administration project, the retreat was initially named “Hi-Catoctin.” President Franklin D. Roosevelt renamed it “Shangri-La,” drawing from James Hilton’s novel Lost Horizon. Later, President Dwight D. Eisenhower renamed it “Camp David” in honor of his grandson.
Spanning 125 acres, Camp David is equipped with various facilities, including cabins, meeting rooms, and recreational spaces. The retreat is not only a site of respite but also a place of significant historical importance. It hosted the 1978 Camp David Accords, where President Jimmy Carter brokered a peace agreement between Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.
Camp David’s secluded location, surrounded by dense forests, ensures privacy and security, making it ideal for hosting foreign leaders, holding confidential discussions, and fostering a productive environment for high-level diplomacy. Despite its critical role, the retreat remains largely inaccessible to the public, preserving its function as a tranquil yet strategic presidential asset.
Camp David, the presidential retreat in Catoctin Mountain Park, MD, features cabins designed for comfort, functionality, and discretion. These cabins serve as private quarters for the President, dignitaries, and staff.
The main cabin, Aspen Lodge, is the President’s residence during stays. It includes living areas, bedrooms, and spaces for informal and formal gatherings. Aspen Lodge combines modern amenities with a rustic aesthetic that harmonizes with its natural surroundings.
Other cabins, such as Hickory Lodge and Laurel Lodge, meet guest and staff needs. Hickory Lodge is used for meetings, while Laurel Lodge provides living spaces. Each cabin is strategically placed to ensure privacy and security, with trails connecting them across the 125-acre retreat.
In 2024-2025, several cabins at Camp David are undergoing renovations to enhance their functionality and preserve their historical significance. These updates aim to ensure the retreat remains a secure, modern sanctuary for presidential and diplomatic use.
This item was hand crafted by the artisan signed below. The wood sourced for this item is from the cabins at Camp David officially known as Naval Support Facility Thurmont. This wood was sourced by Don Haycraft during renovations of 2024-2025, and it is distributed and certified by Hardin Penworks, LLC.

The stadium lies on the grounds of Camp Randall, a Union Army training camp during the Civil War. The camp was named after then Governor Alexander Randall, who later became Postmaster General of the United States.
After an outcry from veterans over plans to turn the site into building lots, the state bought it in 1893 and presented it to the university. Soon afterward, it was pressed into service as an athletic ground. It was originally used by the track and field team before the football and baseball teams moved there in 1895.

Candlestick Park: Niners' Windy Wharf of Gridiron Gold

Conceived in 1957 as a baseball beacon for the Giants fleeing Polo Grounds, groundbreaking sliced the marshy landfill on June 20, 1958—fashioned from 26 million cubic yards of dredged bay mud into a $24 million concrete horseshoe by John Bolles. It flung open on April 15, 1960, with the Giants topping the Dodgers 3-1 before 42,253 fans under Willie Mays' watchful eye, instantly dubbing "The Stick" for its windswept whimsy and seismic shakes—evolving to embrace the 49ers in 1971 amid Bay Area's NFL fervor.
Ballooning from 32,000 baseball bleachers to a howling 70,207 football faithful on AstroTurf (standard 120x53.3-yard NFL turf, later grass in 2006), Candlestick brewed bone-chilling bay blasts where jets from SFO roared overhead and fog horns wailed—dimensions a passer's paradise: 100 feet to sidelines, 300 to corners under those quirky cove lights.

Cardinal Clash into Red Rage – Snag Your L&N Legacy Loot!
Picture storming the field with a pen carved from seats that erupted in Cardinal chaos at L&N, or uncorking ACC anthems with a stopper blazing in red-black fury. From bowl-game rings reliving Lamar's lightning to tailgate-tough knives dicing post-victory feasts—each powerhouse is lathe-forged from authentic stadium shards, rocketing Sugar Bowl surges into heirloom hat tricks. Rally your red zone and unleash the Cardinals' relentless rampage in every revolution!
Cardinal Stadium: Cardinals' Crimson Corral of Gridiron Glory
Cardinal Stadium, now L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium, anchors the University of Louisville's Belknap campus in the heart of Derby City, a red-hot haven for Cardinals football since its triumphant debut. Groundbreaking ignited on April 10, 1996, birthing a $63 million state-of-the-art showpiece to eclipse the aging Cardinal Stadium (1956), and it roared open on September 5, 1998, with the Cardinals demolishing rival Kentucky 68-35 in the inaugural "Dream Game" before a sellout 42,000 fans—heralding UofL's ascent from I-AA independents to FBS firepower under coach Ron Cooper's bold blueprint.
Launching as a quasi-horseshoe with 42,000 seats on lush natural grass (standard 120x53-yard ACC battlefield), the venue ballooned through visionary expansions: a $75 million 2009-2010 surge adding 13,000 seats, 33 luxury suites, and the Norton Healthcare Terrace to hit 55,000; a $63 million 2017-2019 renaissance vaulting to 60,800 with the Jim Patterson Champions Club, premium loge boxes, and field-level suites—blending intimate intensity with modern mojo via $200 million in private funding, all while echoing "Go Cards" chants to seismic levels under those iconic red arches.
Bastion of the Louisville Cardinals since kickoff, the stadium has fueled a golden era: the 2006 12-1 miracle march to Orange Bowl triumph over Wake Forest, 2012 Sugar Bowl stunner vs. Florida (33-23 upset), 2013 Russell Athletic Bowl rout, and Lamar Jackson's Heisman hurricane (2016-17) amid 10 bowl bids, three conference crowns (2000, 2004, 2006), and 300+ home wins. Record roars crest at 60,800 for 2019's Clemson clash, pulsing with rivalry rumbles, viral celebrations, and ACC debuts. Beyond gridiron gold, it hosts concerts, graduations, and community carnivals, etching Louisville's spirited soul into lore. As Cardinals chase corral crowns, Cardinal Stadium endures as a crimson testament to tenacity, triumphs, and timeless tide in college football's heartland.
