PC1867
                ID'd 2nd Lieutenant Shoulder Straps

This pair of 2nd lieutenant shoulder straps are in very good condition.  There size is 1.5 x 3.25 inches, with gold bullion borders and full covered leather backs.  According to the old envelope which accompanies them, the straps belonged to an acting quartermaster with the initials "JPD".  The handwriting on the top half of the front of the envelope states the following:  "Shoulder Straps I wore in the Civil War as 2 Lt Co K 29 Wis Inf (?) and acting Quartermaster  JPD".  The bottom half handwriting is not as legible and I am only able to make out a few words, but it is clearly initialed and dated "JPD 1920".  I have posted an enlargement of this portion of the envelope on the additional pictures page and I welcome any and all suggestions of what you think it may state.  Click on the thumbnail of the shoulder straps to view the additional pictures.  The envelope is included with the straps and the set will make an excellent addition to any Civil War artifact collection.  $495.00   Ordering Information  or  Questions?   SALE PENDING
