CONFEDERATE ENFIELD CARTRIDGE BOX AND SLING.

CONFEDERATE ENFIELD CARTRIDGE BOX AND SLING. This is one of the nicest Confederate cartridge boxes you may ever find. This Confederate box is well marked “S. Isaac Campbell & Co, London”. Box retains its original 1-pc tin and has a brown patent leather sling I have not seen before on a box. Sling is not attached to the roller buckles but is attached to brass finial. Box exhibits what appears to be an original stamped Virginia state seal plate which measures about 44mm x 58mm. This is a fine blockade run Confederate box that would exhibit well in any Confederate collection. SIZE: Box 8″ x 5″ x 3-3/4″; Sling 60″ overall. PROVENANCE: Fred B. McDonald Estate Collection. CONDITION: Box overall is very good retaining most of its original black finish with scattered scuffs and scrapes. There is loose stitching to the two ears of the inner cover. Markings are crisp and clear. The original buff tab is soiled. The brown leather sling is supple and very good overall. The Virginia plate retains areas of gilding in protected areas with an overall yellow patina. 4-41430 JS5 (4,000-5,000)
