CIVILIAN COATS
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

SACK COAT, CIVILIAN. #NC5354.   I'm calling this a "sack coat" but it is a cut very much along the lines of a frock coat - only much shorter in length (like a sack coat). This coat is tagged by the maker as a size "50" - but as I measure it it's more like a 52/54. It is made in a lightweight natural colored mix of 60% cotton and 40% linen and is entirely machine-sewn including buttonholes. No body lining in this item but it does have an "area lining" across the upper back/shoulder blades. All raw seams have been serged (bound over by machine). Falling collar with lapels, 6-piece body, 1-piece sleeves, 2 skirt panels and a small split in the rear tails. There are three small pockets on the front of the coat; two each on the lower front (one left and one right) with flaps and one vest style pocket on the upper left breast. Three simulated horn buttons on the front. This coat is made by FRONTIER CLASSICS as sold through Wild West Mercantile. This coat is BRAND NEW, NEVER WORN!

SUSPENDERS
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

SUSPENDERS: SINGLE BUTTON HOOK-UP. #DP2876: These suspenders are BRAND NEW, NEVER ISSUED and were made a few years ago by Doug Potter. Total working strap length measures 65" (5 feet, 5 inches!). The front single button suspension hangers - the front pieces hanging from the adjustment buckles which have leather ends - measure 8" in length. The rear leather pieces sewn to the strapping measure in with a 2 1/2" working length. As a result you have a tremendous amount of available length on these suspender and a good portion of it probably needs to be cut off once adjusted to buyers height INCLUDING leaving 6 to 8 inches of extra strap for future adjustment. The straps are a very durable plain off-white cotton webbing and are 1" wide. The leather ends (front and back) are pretty thick and may need oiling to soften them up a little. It was noted to me that the two-tine brass buckles used on these suspenders are antique items.
.......... $18.00 per pair + $3.00 First Class Mail shipping  

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

SUSPENDERS; DOUBLE BUTTON HOOK-UP: #NS559: These gray w/ red/blue stripe suspenders are new, never used but are an older stock. As a result some of the leather where it folds over the buckles has started to develop some fine surface cracks. Certainly nothing major but I have to consider the these surface cracks a "blemish" on the leather. Overall, these suspenders feature nice quality die-cut natural color leather ends with die-cut eyelets for the buttons. The leather ends are SEWN to the cotton webbing not riveted. Buckles are period correct two-tine brass. The webbing measures 1 1/2" wide by a v-e-r-y generous 46" in length. Once these suspenders are tried on and adjusted for a good fit you'll probably have to trim off some of the extra webbing on the front. The straps are not sewn together in the back where they would cross. This is done by specific (historical) design. The leather tabs on the back are split allowing for the webbing to be "sandwiched" in between the split and sewn down - thus making for a nice clean look. Center-to-center on the front leather tabs (eyelet to eyelet where the buttons attach) measures 2 1/2" so you may have to readjust a couple of your front trouser buttons to fit ... maybe. :-) These items were made in the U. S. A!

ACCOUTREMENTS & EQUIPMENT

 

TWO REPRO CW FIREARMS; #NC1515:

A friend approached me and asked if I would post these two repro CW firearms for him. As you all know I do not carry firearms on this site but do put gents in touch with each other when I am approached with a weapons sale. So here's what we have:

Prussian 1809 Potsdam Musket With original Bayonet. This Pedersoli 1809 flintlock musket is BRAND NEW!. It has been defarbed, comes with an original bayonet and also Jarnigan buff leather sling. Accompanying this musket is a supply of round ball, flint and patch.
.......... $850.00 and shipping is FREE

LeMat Navy Model Revolver. Still in the box! BRAND NEW, NEVER USED Nine .44 cal rounds and one .20 gauge shotgun. Checkered walnut grips and blued finish. Comes with two holsters - one black Dixie Leather Works and one buff Navy style made by the owner.
.......... $500.00 (free shipping)

SPECIAL NOTE: The owner advised me today (05/29) to lower the price for seven days. Then, on June 6th if it hasn't sold, to delete the listing. So if anyone is interested in this pistol, we have only a short window of time left to act on it.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

First come - first served!. If you are interested in either of these items please call me and I will give you the seller's contact information.

I cannot make any further guarantees or assurances, both real or implied, whatsoever.

NCO STAFF BRASS SHOULDER SCALES. #LH5532. These NCO STAFF brass shoulder scales are BRAND NEW, NEVER USED and come with their mounting hardware (retaining bars and wing studs). These are FLAT bottomed (undoubtedly imported items) but do have the rivets across the tops of the scales denoting NCO Staff. These are old shelf stock so a polishing with some Brasso with bring them up a bit brighter. Set "A" is in mint condition. Set "B" has a couple drawbacks: 1: There is a slight ding or dent underneath the main crescent edge (see Set B photo "DENT") ...2: There are some small blemishes on the top surfaces. A little Brasso may clean these up. I couldn't get any clear photos of them because of the glare. 3: One of the mounting bars needs 3 tiny holes drilled in one end (see Set B photos).

HAVERSACK; OFFICER'S LEATHER. #PM1484. This leather officer's haversack is BRAND NEW, NEVER USED and in mint condition. Made by Dixie Leather Works in a black leather with semi-gloss finish and sewn in white thread. Measures approximately 13" wide x 10" tall. The carrying strap (which is currently folded up and inside the bag) measures 49" long not counting the brass snaps for connecting it to the haversack body. The strap is adjustable via a brass roller buckle and six adjustment holes. When the seller first got this haversack he had an extra hole (nicely done) punched in further up the strap to allow for more adjustment. However, after this was done the haversack went back into the box and never was put into service. The strap has white decorative stitching and a support piece for over-the-shoulder. The brass snaps on the strap attach to the bag via two brass "D" rings. In addition to the main inner (expandable) pocket - which has a 3-button white cotton drill bag - there is also a leather pocket on the inside front cover, a slightly small pocket on the outside of the front cover and a small pocket on the outside back of the haversack. Thus this haversack has one large inner bag, one large inner pocket plus two outside pockets. The main inner leather bag closes via a strap and brass adjustment buckle; the outer back side pocket closes via a small leather strap and roller buckle and the pocket on the front flap closes via a small brass finial. The haversack itself closes as a whole with a small leather strap and brass roller buckle. This haversack is quite an intricate piece of work. :-) Printed instructions for the care of this haversack are still in the inside pocket.

BALL "Domed" BUTTONS; Stamped Brass. #FB2024. We have on hand at this time 5 gross of SMALL 1/2" brass ball buttons and 10 gross of larger 5/8" brass ball buttons. These are all brand new and being sold "by the gross" only; minimum order one gross. These are UNPOLISHED stamped brass with a wire loop back. These buttons DO NOT HAVE any protective finish, coating or "wash" on them so they will tarnish (just like the originals :-). These buttons are just as they are when they came out of the molds and some may have a little light machine oil on the domed surfaces. With that, any falling within that catagory would need to be wiped down before sewing on the uniform. These buttons have worked well on Fire Zouave style jackets, vievandiere jackets, select Chasseur jackets, leggings, and such similar special applications. These photos are not the greatest but will give you an idea of the shape of the dome, loop, etc. I'll see about getting some clearer shots up as soon as possible.   3 view Large size ... 3 Views Small size ...
