This is a cool early 1800s American cartridge box that displays beautifully. This is the version that has the wooden block with the 24 holes on the inside that holds the caliber cartridges. It has the leather outer flap that has the star pattern impressions all over that are a wonderful touch. The style box has curve back to the design which is why collectors have always referred to it as a "belly" cartridge box. This one has the original wooden block intact and is made without the internal implement pouch. The original closure strap is still partially present. On the back of the box it has one of the original two belt loops still remaining. This is the thick style of cartridge box with a and overall size of the box measures 9 inches by 4 inches by 5-1/2 inches. The cartridge box body is detailed with the small brass tacks and they display well. As if that wasn't enough, it has the original black leather belt attaches. The belt uses the simple but effective tinned iron roller buckle. The length adjuster is still present on the inside of the main body leather. The belt is worn but has a very pleasing appearance as you can see. What a great cartridge box to display with your early 1800s military musket.
