RARE CIRCA 1860 BOWN & TETLEY BOWIE WITH

Item Details

Description

CONFEDERATE ALTERED SHEATH. Though unmarked, little doubt that this is product of Bown & Tetley, Pittsburgh who marked his bayonets with nearly identical deeply ribbed bird's head brass grips. 16.5" overall, 11.75" heavy clip point blade. Sheath is correct for this maker, originally had sewn frog which is missing, but has tin band supporting throat and riveted belt loop. Pictured on page 232 "Accoutrements IV" by James R. Johnston. CONDITION: very good overall, blade gray/white with pitting near tip. Brown leather sheath has added riveted belt loop and soldered tin strip reinforcement at throat, though alteration for continued use could have been done by anyone, sure has that Confederate look. PROVENANCE: James R. Johnston collection. (02-22297/JS). $4,000-5,000.
