| Original .58 Caliber Blank Paper Cartridge For Musket |
|
| Here is a Very Uncommon Original Blank Cartridge for .58
caliber musket ! You'll see several cartridge boxes full of original
paper Minie Cartridges, before you see another of these blanks.
Yet, according to Dean S. Thomas, in Round Ball To Rimfire, Vol.I,
p. 157, "Over 18 million musket or rifle blanks were manufactured
at the Federal ordnance facilities during the war, with over 10 million
of that number assembled at the Washington Arsenal alone."
This example is not regulation, but similiar to the non-regulation
example in Thomas book, Specimen #226, and like that example
tied closed with thread. I guess the reason they are so rarely
encountered today, is that most were consumed in training camps,
or discarded once regular ammunition was distributed. Very
uncommon Original Civil War Period Blank Paper
Cartridge for Musket !

| .32 Caliber Rimfire Long Cartriges |
|
| Here is a Pair of .32 Long Rimfire Cartridges for Display with
Your S & W Old Army or other Civil War Rimfire Revolver !
These are Post-War Cartridges manufactured by UMC, or Union
Metallic Cartridge Company, dating from the 1880s-1900. They
are almost identical to the Period Smith & Wesson Cartridges in
length, case, and bullet type, with the only real clue to their date
being the lack of a dish base, and a -U- headstamp on the base.
In a display you can't tell the difference, and this pair won't cost
you Half the Money one Period Smith & Wesson Cartridge
does !

condition ! Cartridge is tight, retaining a brass look to the case,
