Description: GETTYSBURG ECHOSBUYING - SELLING - COLLECTING SINCE 1963PLEASE BROWSE ALL OUR ITEMS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SELECTION ONeBay 100 % AUTHENTIC CIVIL WAR FORAGE KEPI/BUMMERS CAP WITH RARE ORIGINAL ARTILLERY INSIGNIA Excellent Union Army Forage Cap (Bummer-s Cap) with original artillery insignia. One of the most visually appealing CW caps I have seen, and in excellent condition. 100% complete (except for missing paper label) and all original. Excellent condition with rich blue color on the body, with only a few very tiny moth nips. This has the full brown polished cotton lining, complete sweatband, original chin strap w/ buckle, both side buttons, and classic curved downward visor. This is the highly desirable style with smaller diameter crown which flops rakishly forward for a jaunty look. All of the brass insignia on the crown is original. The crossed cannons are standard regulation issue, and are extremely rare items. The letter -B”-is the fancy style with rounded serifs, so-called zouave style. The numeral -4- is a common large one inch example. Our guess is the insignia has been in place since the war, and it appears probable. This insignia could represent Battery D 4th U.S. Light Artillery, or Company D 4th New York Heavy Artillery. The insignia is definitely original, but I cannot tell for certain whether it was attached in 1864 or 1964. In either event the insignia has been on the cap a long time. The most positive evidence that the insignia has been in place since the war is the lining. The lining certainly has the appearance of having been worn during the Civil War as most of the polish is gone off the brown polished cotton, and that is a good indicator of wartime usage. Also, the attaching loops from the insignia are nicely embedded in the lining. Excellent condition, handsome, visually exciting, a very rare and SUPERB display item, 100 % original. One of the best examples we have seen. Free & EZ Layaway AvailableMake an offer, if accepted you simply put a deposit down then you decide the amount and how many payments you wish to make.
