Civil War Bugle / Sold

Civil War Bugle - Inventory Number: MUS 094 / Sold

Wonderful original double twist presentation grade bugle constructed of silver.  Measuring 10” overall with original mouthpiece present.  The bell measures 4” across and retains the reinforced bell garland.  Identical to those produced by C.H. Norton of Philadelphia. This is probably the most well-known maker of Civil War Bugles. This bugle would have been a premium quality instrument in its day, being fashioned of German Silver and most likely presented to a Regimental Bugler at the beginning of the war. It shows all evidence of having been carried throughout the conflict as it shows worldly use. A wonderful civil war example!
