U.S. MILITARY BELT OUTFIT, circa 1870's. Consist
<B>U.S. MILITARY BELT OUTFIT 1870's</B></I> - Consists of 1872 pattern Hagner belt with plate, scarce pistol ammunition box as converted from Civil War vintage percussion cap box and a first pattern Hagner .45-70 calibre cartridge box. The pistol cartridge box and the large Hagner box are both embossed with a large “U.S. within a circle. This is actually a very scarce belt outfit. Its setup would be appropriate for an early Indian War cavalry trooper.<BR><BR><B>Condition:</B></I> Belt plate has a nice uncleaned patina. All leather components are soft and pliable but have a relatively uniform cracked surface. A thorough leather preservative treatment would do justice to this very hard to find U.S. Cavalry grouping.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Smal (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
