201 - ANTIQUE CIVIL WAR ARTIFACTS - WONDERFULL GROUPING OF A TROOPER FROM THE 3RD IOWA CAVALRY, WITH A NOTARIZED LETTER OF PROVENANCE FROM HIS DIRECT DESCENDANT.
Found in an old chest in St. Paul, Minnesota years ago, these items were originally the property of Lt. Clinton McChord of Co. B, 3rd Iowa Cavalry. McChord enlisted on 8/30/61 and served until muster-out in August of 1865. The set includes a good condition Colt Pocket Revolver, Roby Cavalry Sabre, Cavalry Sword belt & hangers, a piece of his sabre knot, Telescope w/original case, 2 original tintypes of McChord in uniform, a CDV of our hero taken post-war with cardstock describing his service, some transcribed excerpts from original letters that were so tattered they went south long ago(unsalvageable), and Volumes I & II of Harper's Lithographs of the Great Rebellion saved by our trooper. All items are in very good to fine condition with the exception of the two volumes which I rate as fair. You don't see many groupings coming out these days, and I was very happy to aquire this one. I can't keep everything, but I was tempted on this one. The 3rd Iowa saw some violent action at Pea Ridge, LaGrange as well as many smaller skirmishes throughout the war. They had more losses than most Cavalry units in the West, losing 5 officers and 79 enlisted men killed or mortally wounded in action. For those of you that like ID'd material and would like a little of everything that a Cavalry officer may have attached himself to, this is one-stop shopping. A small collection in itself, and ID'd Iowa items are not easy to come by.

166 - CIVIL WAR INSCRIBED PAIR OF SILVER SPOONS. PRESENTED TO "MRS. CLAESGENS from Co. F, 146th Regt."
Peter S. Claesgens was Captain of Company F, 146th New York Infantry and later the regimental Lt. Colonel. His wife was a visitor and favorite with the men of his company. These would make a nice addition to a Civil War collection display, or for the man who loves to eat his cereal with an original Civil War twist. What could be better than a dreaming of the 146th's actions at Chancellorville, Gettysburg and the Wilderness with a mouthfull of CoCo Puffs!

sh-1-1 - CIVIL WAR SLOUCH HAT - DELUXE, CIVIL WAR OFFICERS SLOUCH/HARDY HAT IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
One of the most stunning finds I have come across in several years. This is the best piece of Civil War Headgear that I have ever seen. Very high body, 5/8" brim, 3" sweatband, two plumes, unique gold-gilt cockade on bullion cord with fancy gold-gilt acorns. Gold embroidered horn insignia added at a later date. The best part is the inside label which reads, "J.C. Jones / Dealer in Military Equiptments / Fortress Monroe ". One of the few, world-class conditioned slouch hats that is a no excuses, no-bull, bonafide Civil War production hat, AND IT IS AWESOME. I know that collecting headgear is not for everyone. If you know someone that may be interested in this item, please forward this item to any friends that you think may be interested. It deserves to be in the very best of collections.

lee_1 - FRAMED AND AUTOGRAPHED CDV OF ROBERT E. LEE IN AN ANTIQUE FRAME.
This is an extremely sharp and well toned image of the Confederate Commander with a penciled date "1869' on the reverse. No other markings other than the original, large & bold signature of Lee himself. One of the best(and I am told rarest) of Lee's images, with a great original signature in wonderfull condition. This item has been well cared for since its creation, certainly by someone who loved the great General, possibly a Confederate veteran.
