Confederate

1. This is an absolutely beautiful Confederate sword.  It is the Confederate manufactured artillery short sword with "CS and star" cast into each side of the heavy cast brass guard.  It is the finest example of this style Confederate sword that I've seen offered in years.  This is one that you will treasure for years and years.  Describing this sword in one word "WOW" !!--$3,850.
2. This is no doubt the finest Texas grouping that I have ever had to offer.  It was purchased a number of years ago directly out of the Texas estate by the Lotz House Civil War Museum in Franklin, TN. and still has the museum's ID numbers on the items.  The estate belonged to William J. Stafford of the 27th Texas Cavalry and consists of William's super rare trans-Mississippi style Confederate manufactured cavalry saber in it's original excellent condition BROWN LEATHER scabbard, his "Regulation Style" C.S. oval waist belt plate on the original leather belt, and two photos of William.  This grouping was one of the Lotz House Museum's finest displays and will no doubt be a wonderful long term investment grade grouping for someone.--$22,500.
3. Extremely rare Tennessee Confederate cavalry saber and scabbard manufactured by "Memphis Novelty Works - Thomas Leech and Co." - Memphis, TN.  The blade is classic unstopped and has a rich never cleaned aged patina.  The brass guard is in nice condition as well and is marked "Memphis - Thos. Leech & Co."  The leather on the grip was professionally restored back in the 1960s and looks real nice.  The scabbard is original to the sword and is also Confederate manufactured with lap seam and brass mounts.  This would be a center piece in almost any collection.--$6,950.SOLD
4. High grade College Hill Nashville, Tennessee Confederate Field and Staff Officer's Sword and Scabbard.  The blade on this sword is sparkling bright with clear Cunningham etching.  Cunningham engraving is distinctive and well known to often include a "monster" "C.S.A." and a Confederate Stars and Bars flag  The engraving on this fabulous sword has ALL THREE!  The guard has a rich aged bronze patina and could not be prettier.  Some College Hills are found in leather scabbards and some in metal.  This one is in a brass mounted metal scabbard that fits it perfectly and appears to have always been with it.  This sword is so beautiful it is really hard to adequately describe it.  Hopefully the pictures of this fine sword will speak for themselves.--$18,500.SOLD 

1. Very attractive Model 1860 Ames light cavalry saber and scabbard.  The blade has a nice gently ageing grey patina and is marked "U.S.- 1863 - Ames Mfg. Co."  The grip has original wrap and wire and is really nice.  The scabbard has a smooth grey patina and is without a single dent.  This is a saber that you can put on your wall and display with pride.--$895.

Co. - 1865" and are sharper and clearer than most you see.  The grip has original wrap and wire with only one small old age crack in the wood.  The scabbard has a smooth dark never cleaned patina with several old dings and marks from service.  This is an attractive Civil War cavalry saber that could tell some tall stories.--$750.  
3. Quite rare massive Model 1841 Ames Naval Cutlass with original leather - brass mounted - scabbard.  The blade has a smooth dark uncleaned attic patina with crisp markings of "1842 - U.S.N. - Ames - Cabotville, Mass."  The massive cast brass grip and "D" guard show unquestionable service and several rack numbers stamped in.  The leather scabbard is complete but is surface cracking some with age.  The leather has also contracted a bit with age and the sword lacks about 1/2 inch or so going all the way into the scabbard without having to be forced more than what would be a good thing for the scabbard.  You don't see this sword offered everyday.--$1,295.HOLD
4. Model 1860 light cavalry saber and scabbard made by "C. Roby" of West Chelmsford, Mass.  The blade is bright with remains of old plating and is marked "U.S. - 186? - C. Roby - W. Chelmsford".   The grip has original wrap and is in nice condition.  The scabbard has an attractive aged brown patina with several dings from service.  The brass guard has a "G-4" rack number stamping.  The last digit of the date is to light to read but I think I can faintly see the halo of a "2".  This is a nice honest Civil War cavalry saber {with a rare maker" at a great price.--$695.
5. Very attractive Ames Model 1840 "N.C.O." {Non-Commissioned Officer} sword in it's original leather scabbard.  The blade is bright and clean with markings {U.S. - 1864 - Ames Mfg.
