Watervliet Arsenal Ammo Crate
Ammunition box is pine construction showing the red primer paint underneath with remnants of the green arsenal paint on top. Interior shows an excellent "Watervliet Arsenal July 1864" stencil. Both ends show 3 screw holes where handles had been originally attached. Box measures 19 1/2" W x 11 3/4" D x 7 1/2" H. Ref. Page 84, Round Ball to Rimfire, Part I, by Dean Thomas.
$1295.00 - 61-240

Blakeslee Cartridge Box for Spencer Rifle & Carbine
10 tube "Quick loader" holds 70 rounds. Leather body is in good condition with the back tab split at finial. Carrying strap tab and buckle are intact. Leather body has a faint makers mark and appears to have been cut a long time ago revealing part of the box. Lid leather is in lesser shape but is still hinged and has a partial closing flap. All tubes are original and correct. It is hard to find these at less than $7500.00 but we bought it right because of the missing leather. I don't think you can find one in this condition at a better price.
