This item has been identified by Ed Hartshorn as part of a spoke from the wheel of the original Twenty Mule Team Borax wagon. It is wood painted red. It tapers at one end, unpainted, where it would fit into either the hub or rim of the wheel. There is a metal bolt, washer, and nut near the opposite end, possibly holding a splinter/fragment of wood together. This end has been sawed off cleanly.Collection
