Click on images for enlarged versions.
 

This is a woven fabric sash measuring 8' 4" x 3 1/2" and is in very nice shape with only some very minor fraying on the "acorn" end knots and tassels. The remainder of the cloth is intact although the dye, originally maroon, has since faded to a red-brown color. This is a fine example of a Civil War officer's sash and would make a nice addition to a uniform or officer grouping. (74962-94) [Frank Burg Collection] (400/600)  SOLD FOR $402.50
