On this page you will find the different types of antique and vintage barbed wire that I have available for sale. Vintage wires are available in 5, 10, 15, and 20 foot lengths. Antique barbed wire are only available in up to 24 inch lengths. Because of various differences in the different types of wire, you'll have to contact me at anevapeirce@yahoo.com to get a quote. If you want to get some idea as to how much my prices are, look around on my Ebay pages.
Glidden 2-point flat, patented in 1874 #157124
Brotherton's 2-point round, patented in 1878 #207710 long wrap
Curtis' 1/4 twist, 1/2 round 2 point, patent # 470746, patented in 1892
I wouldn't have found this had it not been night time and shining the flash light just right. It looked just like Miles' staple (below), until you look closer.
Miles' Staple Barb, handmounted 2 point, patent # 20868, patented in 1878

These rolls of barbed wire were found on our North Texas farm inside and around an old barn built in 1917 that was destroyed by a tornado several years ago. This is what is left of that old barn. I'm still sifting through the mounds of wire, so keep checking back, I might find something new!
