Acquired several years ago when we were fortunate enough to purchase several groupings from the personal collections of our longtime friend Dr. Francis Lord, this period original issue artillery insignia device offers that desirable, untouched age patina and with the exception that the easily replaced attachment wires have been removed remains in fine original condition. (Those Oldtimers who were fortunate enough to know Francis will remember and lament his habit of removing attachment wires and sometimes even using hot melt to mount such insignia for one of his many displays.)
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 had an abiding interest in all manner of 19th century military equipage. His primary interest was in Civil War however and led to his widely known, multi volume, pioneer reference, Lord’s 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. Lord’s 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.) As with all direct sales, we are pleased to offer a no questions asked three day inspection with refund of the purchase price upon return as purchased! Thanks for visiting Gunsight Antiques !
