Description

Confederate Wood Drum Canteen – Inventory Number: CON 535 / SOLD  A very nice example of a Confederate wooden drum canteen. Produced during the war, this circular specimen is a cedar constructed example with its original cotton strap which appears to have been present since issued. Wonderful, tapered tin spout remains, these are almost always missing. Two circular iron bands, each 3/8” wide, encompass the canteen’s outer edges and secured to itself via a small iron rivet. All three iron sling retention bars are present. Still visible on each face are the circular lathe marks left by the machine cutting tool.   In addition, there are several markings lightly carved into the surface that appear to be initials. A very fine example at well below market value.   Inventory Number: CON 535 / SOLD
