New York State Militia Carteridge Box, Pre C. W. Through 1880
This is a nice 1850 - 1880 carteridge box as issued and used by some of the numerous militia units from New York State. Many founded before the Civil War. This is a leather box with brass border trim and the letters NY on the center of the outer flap. Nice looking box, and will display well. Eventhough the back seam is open, as is common on the earlier boxes, due to the coating of the leather.
