L472. holster for a .44 army revolver, Colt or Remington fit great, it also works with a .36 navy revolver, the leather is strong and pliable with only slight crazing, all stitching is tight, flap is held on by stitches and three rivets, much brass closure finial, retains the toe, much nicer than most I see
L470. carbine cartridge box in great condition, the leather is strong and pliable with virtually no crazing, the stitching is strong and intact, the roller buckles have been removed, the inner flap has a maker mark tht I can't quite make out, has the wood block insert, displays great on it's own, or will look great with your carbine
L464. carbine cartridge box in outstanding condition, the leather is strong and pliable with minimal crazing, all stitching is intact, roller buckles, closure tab, and belt loops all present and in great shape, it also retains the wood insert with 20 holes, these are usually missing, the inner flap has a Dingee New York maker's mark but it is faint, overall a great carbine box, much nicer than most I see
L453. square eagle panel plate on it's original belt, the plate is like plate 154 in "American Military Belt Plates", circa 1818 - 1835, the plate is in excellent condition with great detail and a mellow brass patina, this buckle is rare, but the original belts are virtually never seen, it is a wide belt and measures 2.5" wide x 34.5" long, it is strong and pliable, has one small piece missing, hs a unique adjuster that is sewn onto the inside of the belt, super rare find that will stand tall in any collection
L452. Model 1851 dragoon saber belt, brown buff leather belt is in very good condition, both drops with snaps are present, the short drop was cut and repaired where it attaches to the upper ring, the belt plate shows good wear, is the NCO or enlisted man's model with the early, one piece applied silver wreath, the buckle is bench marked 322 and the keeper is marked 455 but they fit perfectly and the patinas match, nice rig

L448. Model 1851 sword belt plate on belt, the plate is in good shape, it is an enlisted man's or NCO's style with the early style one piece applied silver wreath, shows wear but still has strong detail, doesn't look like it has been cleaned since the war and has light dirt in the recesses giving it a tan appearance, the reverse has the long, narrow tongue and is bench marked 215, it fits the keeper well, but I believe they are a marriage, the belt is strong and pliable with slight crazing, the brass adjuster was lost and the belt is sewn together at that point, the drops are MIA, nice rig that no doubt saw a lot of use but still displays well
