Newest addition added to the CW/CW Era display case I'm putting together. I removed the chain as it was added and not original...

Coming together nicely --- still looking for a couple of harder to find pieces and a few more non dug bullets yet but should be done on sched. (early/mid spring)...

Nothing special on the 411 Joe - just another piece I bought to add in the display case with everything else.

My only problem now that I can see is that I don't wanna stop collecting up this stuff and may end up having to find a large display case!
Sweet Flask!!

You may already have this info. I can't see the patent date in your pic. but based on titles we can date that pretty close.

Right on Ron

and from what I understand (could be wrong)

but

that mainly the confederates used these flask

and

that the yankees mainly used the ones with the stars, 2 hands, etc (batty peace flask)
I love that flask!  CW artifacts are completely addicting!
Do you have a photo of the entire display case that you could share?

Very cool my friend!!
