Illustrated here with a U S quarter for size comparison our photos will offer the best description of this nice period staff grade hat insignia. Of interest to the collector will be that we acquired the piece from Francis Lord from his personal collection. Veteran collectors who are fortunate to have known Dr. Lord will remember that Francis had a habit of gluing things to display boards for show & tell at the old Civil War shows. Remnants of that glue remains on the back and can be easily removed but wed leave it as is with the old mans tracks on the back. We acquired this relic several years ago when we were fortunate enough to purchase several groupings from the personal collection of our longtime friend. A pioneer Civil War collector from a day when nearly no one else paid much attention to the details of many now valued Civil War collectable categories, Francis authored the widely known, multi volume, pioneer reference, Lords CIVIL WAR COLLECTORS ENCYCLOPEDIA. While a lot of detailed knowledge has been gained as the interest and value of Civil War collectibles increased so dramatically over the years, Dr. Lords first and second volumes in particular and his Civil War Sutlers & Their Wares continue to offer valuable and reliable reference to Civil War collectors. (Use Lord in our search feature to find other Lord collection items.)
