<B>Rare Dewitt Confederate Foot Officer's Sword.</B></I> Attributed to Columbus, Georgia maker A.H. Dewitt, ca. 1862, this unmarked foot officer's sword has a 36.25" overall length with a 30.5" blade. Topped with a cast brass guard and pommel, the latter decorated with a laurel wreath border. The wooden grip is bound in leather and is secured with brass wire. Leather-cased wooden scabbard having brass furniture. All brass elements enjoy old toning and display considerable evidence of rushed Confederate manufacture. The scabbard's drag has pronounced casting flaws whereas the sword's guard retains sand casting debris on its underside and file marks on the quillon. Small splits on the grip's leather casing. The leather on the scabbard exhibits normal wear with light crazing. Mottled blade with one small nick. Very good condition overall.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Collectibles (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>) <BR><BR><B>Important notice:<
