I take USPS money orders, PayPal and even personal checks if I know you (or have an idea who you are). I ship by next business day on receipt of payment and provide a tracking number. Contact by private message or johnduffer@comcast.net.

A. - Officer’s Trousers – made by he we name not. Seat blew out once and was repaired, no other damages. Size 32-33. New is $285 without shipping. These are only $110 including shipping or $115 PayPal. I won’t post link but this is from his website: “ Taken directly from civilian patterns at the time this trouser is meant to capture the fashion of the period. Made very roomy in the seat and thigh, these trousers offer movement as well as the classic mid-nineteenth century silhouette. Finished with an inside white cotton binder belt, they truly are structured gentlemen's trousers. “

B. - Top Hat – made by Clearwater Hats, size 7 ½. Pictures look a bit washed out but the hat is quire black. New is $180 without shipping. This one only $85 including shipping or $88 PayPal. http://www.clearwaterhats.com/Civil%...il_war%203.htm

C. - Carpet Bag – don’t remember the maker, got it from a sutler, probably at Franklin or Corinth. Four interior pockets, able to comfortably hold a 14 pound cat as the photo shows. $65 including shipping or $68 PayPal, cat not included.

So what you're saying is that you let the cat out of the bag... so to speak...

John do you have any Ferrets for sale? Could use a mean attack Ferret.

Everybody's a cat or ferret comedian. Laugh it up boys, it's all fun and games till somebody gets an eye clawed out.

The carpet bag buyer changed their mind so it's back on the market.

Do you have a larger cat to put in the bag? Mine is in excess of 14 lbs and I want to see if it will fit.

A bump for the carpet bag - now priced at $55 including shipping or $58 PayPal. Not only usefull actually in the field, for those who travel light to events I found it quite handy to throw in all modern stuff and made several events walking from house to car with what was on my back and the carpet bag in hand.
