CIVIL WAR CONFEDERATE CEDAR WOOD CANTEEN.

A good, honest Confederate cedar wood canteen measuring 7 3/8" in diameter & 2 3/8" thick. One face has the name "FRED" carved into it & the other remains blank. The side of the canteen has 2 iron straps running the entire circumference & 3 iron strap guides evenly spaced. There is a 1" opening at the top that appears to have been somewhat widened by an industrious mouse. There is no spout present but an early cork is included. CONDITION: the side with the name "FRED" is solid, but a bit warped so the edges are out of their slot. The other face is less warped but does show a single crack. Iron straps are rusted but quite stable. (02-17452/BF). $1,200-1,600.
