Three Interesting Civil War Relics
<B>Three Interesting Civil War Relics</B></I> including an example of Tarheel creativity: A U.S. cartridge box that at one time had an Impressed "U.S." on the flap. A creative North Carolina soldier has altered the "U.S." and there is now a very clear "N.C." Condition of the box is overall poor with missing straps and much flaking. One look at this cartridge box and it yells Johnny Reb. A great displayable relic. <BR><BR>Also, a piece of hardtack (Army Bread) brought home from war by Corp. Chaney Towne Co. I 81st NY Vol. About 2/3 of a 3" x 3" piece of hardtack; somewhat crumbling but very displayable. <BR><BR>Finally, a relic piece of a musket stock 15" long with modern tag stating "Shields Civil War Museum Collection, Gettysburg, PA."<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Collectibles (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
