BOYLE & GAMBLE STAFF AND FIELD OFFICER’S SWORD.

BOYLE & GAMBLE STAFF AND FIELD OFFICER’S SWORD. You are bidding on a very fine example of a Richmond, Virginia made sword with a 28″ fully etched blade with various military motifs including flags and a couple patriotic shields, one with “CSA”. Blade shows distinctive B&G “flaw”, the flaw of course is simply the line where the iron tang is brazed to the steel blade. This sword has a perfect grip and perfect scabbard. Brass hilt, pommel and scabbard mounts exhibit nice untouched patina, as seen in photos. If you are looking for a Boyle & Gamble staff this is your opportunity to buy a fine example with no problems and beautiful patina. PROVENANCE: Bill Osborn Collection. CONDITION: Blade is gray/bright with scattered staining and pitting, etched panels are all discernible. Grip is intact with all leather and wire. Brass surfaces of hilt, pommel and scabbard mounts exhibit good patina with a few scattered scratches and dings. Leather scabbard body is mottled with scattered scratches and scrapes and flaking. Drag is missing one pin and the other pin is bent. 4-38962 JS12 (12,000-16,000)
