This is fantastic and rare piece! It is an original Civil War soldier's cotton haversack in very pretty condition! This is the style that you often see referred to as the Massachusetts pattern since many of them were issued to troopers from that state during the Civil War. This one is pretty with a look that you can tell it saw service. The cotton has aged from white to a beautiful tan tone. It has the original strap intact. The body of the haversack measures 11 inches across and is 10 inches deep. The flap is completely intact as are the two original bone buttons that hold the flap down. When you open up the outer flap you are greeted by the section where the inner compartment would have had the inner pouch. Most of the time this bag is missing but this one is present and in fine shape. There is the original bone button remaining that holds the inner compartment pouch in place. This is one of the toughest to find of all of the soldier's accoutrements and this one is 100% complete and in great looking lightly "Used but not abused" shape all over. Don't miss your opportunity.
