A LATE ISSUE ORIGINALUS CAVALRY SADDLE CLOTH FOR A TROOPER IN \"I\" TROOP OF THE 4th CAVALRY.
IT HAS A YELLOW LEATHERNUMBER \"4\" AND THE LETTER \"I\" IN THE CORNER. THEY WERE GLUED IN PLACE PERHAPS DURING THE PERIOD OF USE OR BY A MORE RECENT COLLECTOR OR REENACTOR. THE LETTERS ARE WELL MADE AND ARE 1 AND 3/4 INCH HIGH. THEY SEEM TO HAVE BEEN THEREFOR A LONG TIME.
ON THE INSIDE THERE IS A VERY WELL PRESERVED WHITE PAINTSET OF CROSS SWORDS WITH THE \"4\" AND \"I\" BELOW AS WELL AS A TROOPER NUMBER. ONE CAN SEE THE SEWING HOLES OF THE ORIGINAL \"4\" AND \"I\" IN THE CLOTH. THERE IS NO OTHER ISSUE OR MANUFACTURE MARKING THAT I COULD FIND.
THE HEAVY WEB CANVAS CLOTH IS DIRTY ON THE OUTSIDE FROM FIELD USE. IT SHOWS A LOT OF GREENISH COLOR SOILING AND I DO NOT KNOW IF IT COULD BE CLEANED. MINOR FRAYING ON THE EDGE, PARTICULARLY WHERE THE STIRRUP STRAPS RUBBED THE CLOTH. THE STITCHING IS SOLID.
THIS SADDLE CLOTH LOOKS GREAT WITH A 1928 McCLELLAN SADDLE WITH FULL SKIRT AS IT HIDES MUCH OF THE SOILING.
THE INSIDE ISFAIRLY CLEAN AS IT WAS PROTECTED BY THE SADDLE WOOL BLANKET BUT CLEARLY THIS CLOTH WAS USED IN THE FIELD.
THE CLOTH MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 21 x 31 INCH AT THE WIDEST POINT.
NOTE THAT THESADDLE STAND AND OTHER PROP SHOWN IN THE PICTURESARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS LISTING. THIS LISTING IS ONLY FOR THE SADDLE CLOTH DESCRIBED ABOVE.
THE 1928 McCLELLAN SADDLE WILL BE LISTED FOR SALE SHORTLY.
