Greetings Friends and Comrades;
Just a brief note to update you on few new items around here and some things in the works as well.
First off, we have five "special" pairs of Doug Potter's hand made cotton web suspenders, these are a limited run that Doug did for us. What makes these unique from the others we carry is that Doug made these five with genuine authentic period buckles, not re-pop buckles. The suspenders themselves are reproduction, but the buckles are the real deal. Hand sewn with waxed linen thread, leather end tabs, 100% cotton webbing. I've not posted these on our site as I do not expect them to be around here long enough. First come first served, $35.00 plus shipping, contact us if you are wanting in on these.
Second, we now have issue type turned oak tent pegs, and blue wool flannel contract Federal issue shirts available from Todd Morris.
In the works, watch for jean cloth covered CS Tin Drum canteens! I've wanted to offer these for a long time, and I'm finally getting around to it. These will be hot dipped flat tin drums covered with jean wool from FHW or Ben Tart, choice of slings will include cotton linen, tick stripe, leather, or cotton drill. Will offer variety of closures with button or buckle. Straight rolled tin spouts, no lip. Check the website for these soon.
That's all for now, more to follow. Thanks for your interest and continued support!
Best Regards;
