Description
Cantel Patent Leather Canteen with Stopper. This unusual leather canteen was patented on October 14, 1862 by Lazare Cantel. It consists of two pieces of thick, molded leather fastened with numerous copper rivets having tinfoil cemented to the inside. Despite its odd appearance, it seems to have become popular among many officers. This example is unmarked but retains its stopper and almost all the original leather strap.Auction Info
