This fully original specimen of a War of 1812 Period Wooden Canteen is marked “GD” on one side and has the letter “A” above and the date of “1813” beside. Period interlaced wooden bands surround this well constructed Canteen with its wood paneled and capped ends. The second band is made of wrought iron and with rivets. Measures about 8.125” in diameter by 5.5” deep, having a natural rich brown patina. The Hand-carved date of “1813” makes this a very desirable and historic collectible for any period display or War of 1812 era collection. One of the very best original dated examples of this style we have seen. Museum Quality.
