This is an excellent original Civil War cannonball fuze. This is made without a maker marking but is stamped on the outside of the paper like the style that came from the Frankford Arsenal. they are common to be found in the wooden block with the paper label but an individually wrapped version like this is seldom encountered. On the side of the paper you can see the number markings which denote the burn times of the paper fuses that were inside at one time. This one is an original 20 second fuze. The 20 second one is one of the tougher times to find. Not as many were made to burn so long in flight. The fuse is just a fraction over 2 inches in overall length. It makes a fine display to put with your shell to show how they worked.
