Original Item: Only One Available. Classic example of a Confederate Issue Cap Pouch. The pouch exhibits many of the features of a Confederate-made cap pouch, which generally are cruder in construction than their Union U.S. Issued counterparts.

Irregularly cut belt loops are secured to the reverse by the means of brass rivets. The securing stud on the flap is also brass, differing in style from the much more often encountered Northern pouches, the stud is shorter and rounder. The pouch overall was constructed of russett brown leather.

The stitching is still good and strong. The ears of the pouch flap are missing, unfortunately. Internal fleece is present, however loose. An original vent pick is still contained within the pouch. The leather is in good condition, showing wear and age from honest use and storage wear… but overall, not bad at all for a piece of military equipage that is over 150 years old!

Confederate issue accouterments are incredibly hard to find. This is an excellent example perfect for the Civil War collection!
