Columbia River Buckle (Tugboat Towboat Belt Buckle)

Description

Columbia River Buckle  brass on chrome (Tugboat / Towboat Belt Buckle) custom hand-made 2″x 3″ gift boxed In 1974, Columbia River Capt. Ron Gray Sr., hand carved a brass tugboat and placed it on a hand crafted belt buckle.  The  belt buckle received so much interest he started a small-scale production that year of the same belt buckle  as a hobby and were sold to co-workers and to others in the industry for many years until his retirement in 2004.     In 2010, Columbia River Capt. Ron Gray Jr, briefly took over his father’s hobby for a short time and  produced a limited supply of the same buckle his father made.  These 2010 produced new backstock belt buckles are 2″ tall & 3″wide with brass tugboat centered on chrome buckle. Comes in gift box as shown. A rare and sought after collectible that will be appreciated for years to come.  Only 8 are available.
