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 |

PC1998 US Cartridge Box This US cartridge box with plate is in very good condition. The leather is in remarkably good shape and is fairly pliable. There is a manufacturer's stamp but I am only able to make out "Quincy, ILL" as the name above it is difficult to see. Both original tins are present and one of the two roller buckle has fallen off but is still included with the piece inside one of the tins. The original leather thong used to hold the plate to the outer flap has reduced in size so that only one attachment loop of the plate is secured. The other end is easily held in place by a small portion of a toothpick. Other than those two minor issues this is a very nice box that will display well with any campsite collection. This item is from a collection of Civil War relics assembled in northern Va. over several decades. $475.00 Ordering Information or Questions? SALE PENDING |

PC1874 Limber Chest This limber chest is one of two discovered in
December, 2007, in an 18th century barn, on the land of an 18th century home
site, in Amelia County, Va. Both chests are of Confederate manufacture
and use, and are identified. This particular chest, as was the other,
was used by the 12th Va. Inf. to carry military paper (pay vouchers and
associated company documents) and was in the possession of Sgt. Robert C.
Osborne, at the war's end. Osborne, a native of Petersburg and
original member of the famed Petersburg Grays, served throughout the war
with the 12th Va. (formed in 1861 from the Grays) , attached to Mahone's
brigade, seeing heavy action throughout the Petersburg campaign, including
being in the forefront at the re-taking of the Crater, as depicted in John
Elder's famous painting. Although Osborne's family lived in
Petersburg, they owned a farm, Laurel Grove, in Amelia; here the family
raised tobacco, and it was here that Sgt. Osborne left three limber chests
during the Confederate Army's retreat through Amelia, on the fateful trip
culminating at Appomattox Courthouse. The chests have apparently been
in the very barn where Osborne left them so long ago, until their recent
removal. The current owner of Laurel Grove is a direct descendant of Robert
C. Osborne. |
