Lot Includes complete M1875 Palmer Brace System belt with set of two cartridge pouches and complete with attached haversack and clothing bag. Has straps for blanket roll. Belt has buckle with US and loops to which the brace system attaches. Very Rare to find complete. Shown in Ordnance Memo No. 79 of 1875.
The Palmer Brace system is as follows:
1. Proper Belt with the rectangular buckle with loop on top edge and catch with loop on top edge.
2. complete Brace system with straps for attaching to belt, both straps and either side for haversack and clothing bags and complete with the 3 straps for blanket roll.
3. 1 pair of matching early McKeever Cartridge boxes with flat ends
4. the left and right cloth and haversack bags
5. the proper early M1873 Bayonet scabbard and bayonet. A full set of Model 1904 Blanket Roll Straps, all full length and in excellent condition, showing their original bright russet leather color and brown japanned lacquer finish on all the buckles and straps – very likely unissued. The blanket roll consists of four separate straps made from russet leather. The two straps for buckling around the blanket roll near the ends. A third strap with a special spring snap at one end and a buckle at the other connects the first two straps by fastening into the D& #39;s. The fourth strap , like the first two but with out the D ring is used to buckle around the middle of the roll.
**Cartridge pouches show wear, one has some chipping and flaking to the leather exterior, one is in really good shape with hardly any wear to the leather. Both swivels are intact and function nicely. Both brass buckles are present and the stitching on both is tight. Can haversack bags show wear with some soiling and fading with minor fraying in isolated spots. Leather straps show some light wear around the edges from use, overall the leather is pliable not brittle with all straps, rivets, and buckles intact. R.I.A. markings are nice and legible. Bayonet & amp; scabbard are nice retaining most of the original finish with patina, and some finish loss. Leather shows wear and cracking but still pliable and stitching is tight. Overall in very good to excellent condition**
