Description
Civil War Regulation Cavalry Musician's Shell Jacket Civil War Regulation Cavalry Musician's Shell Jacket showing honest wear and use. Complete with its distinctive "facing of lace three-eighths of an inch wide" down the front. As per regulation, the tall stand-up collar, cuffs, lower edge and back seams are similarly trimmed in yellow worsted tape. Both "pillows" designed to support the saber belt remain on the back. The jacket retains all twelve small general service buttons extending down the front along with two at each side of the collar and two at each functional cuff. Worsted tape shows general fading with minor losses to the neck and back. Blue wool body with a number of small holes and cuts reserved to the back, right sleeve shows a few holes, a 7" cut at the elbow and some repaired cuts. The interior is a coarse woven brown wool which shows losses and wear, the body lining held fast with pins. The blue green cotton sleeve lining has an interesting printed design. An example of one of the most elusive and colorful government-issue uniforms of the Civil War showing honest wear.Auction Info
