Confederate Cap Pouch

Confederate Cap Pouch

This cap pouch is a New Orleans Magee Horter and George product.  They used two belt loops which are attached to the body in a distinctive way unique to their opperation.  Refer to page 75 in "Collecting the Confederacy" for a similar example.  The brass finial is attached to a square piece of tin as a washer on the inside of the pouch.  The body and flap of the pouch is thin leather showing the use of substandard leather.  There is a break in the flap.
