| Small Tin Drum Militia Canteen - All Soldered |
|
|
Here is a Fine Pre-War or Civil War Period Tin Drum Militia Canteen ! It still has the tin spout, all three sling loops, and a single wide tin belt loop present, all in good order. The canteen shows all soldered construction, with one side flat and the other convex. Typical in size of many mid-1800s militia canteens, the body of the canteen measures 4.5 inches diameter by 1.5 inches wide, with the tin spout being just a tiny bit over half an inch tall. The very wide belt loop on the reverse would accept up to about a 3.25 inch belt. I see no holes or rusted thru areas, and all the tin wears a very nice old gray patina. Just a Fine Civil War Period Tin Drum Militia Canteen ! [ L.L. ]
