Folks,
I will offer a package deal here. This time, as mr. Boulden experienced as of late, will have all items included( no missing items this time).
The set contains the following:
I. Jean cloth shell jacket, CS style( squared bottom corners). Top-stitching and buttonholes, as well as interior handsewn. Jacket is a size 48. Jacket used at one Saturday presentation, and a little display usage. Jacket comes with a pair of 1st. LT bars(CS style) sewn onto the collar. This was made by "Blockade runner," and is a fairly coarse jean cloth. It is dyed with indigo. This is a really neat looking jacket, and t5he quality, much to my amazement, is very good. I apid $170 for it. Blockade has it isted for $175.
II. White leated shirt, purchased from "Blockade Runner." This shirt is a XL(46-4. uSED ONCE, GREAT SHAPE. Priced at $29 new
III.Sword: purchased from "BigMick445" off of E-bay. This guy is the only maker of quality reproduction Civil War swords that I know of. This sword is great, and a better description can be found in one of my previous posts. It is patterned off of the "Leech & Rigdon." This sword is a Foot Officers model. It ocmes with a nice blued scabbard. Sword used at one weekend event, and is in great condition. I paid $175 for it (shipping included).
IV.Sword Belt: Purchased from "Blockade Runner." Picked this baby up almost brand new from previous owner. Features a NC state seal two-piece buckle. This is punched to fit a 38-44 waist. Great condition, looks to be practically unused.The company sells these for $90 new.
V.Greg Starbuck officer kepi. I purchased this from a local guy, he used it for one living history. It is sized for a 23.5 head. Man, this cap is beautiful, made form dark blue braodcloth, also features a gold chinstrap, as well as appropriate gold braid for LT. This cap was $150 new. It also has a Charleston kepi maker thing inside.The cap is lined with Moroccan red leather sweatband.
This set is worth a total of $626 new. I will let the set go for $400. The kepi, sword, and belt are worth this alone. This would basically be an offer of throwing in the jacket & shirt free.
Please, serious inquiries only. I am going to try and have a pal take pics this evening. I will be making a trip, so please, serious inquiries only. I will also sell items individually. Contact me for individual prices.
