It is rare to find an unopened pack of Civil War cartridges, let alone Smith carbine cartridges.

These are the paper and foil cartridges manufactured under Poultney’s patent.  The patent (#40,988 dated December 15, 1863) was originally granted to Thomas Rodman and Silas Crispin who assigned it to Thomas Poultney.  The cases were made of brass foil and paper with a perforation in the base. Similar to cartridges for the Gallager, these are shaped to fit into the receiver of the Smith.

Perfect pack with well centered label and tear-string on the side.  [jet]

UPS SHIPPING REQUIRED.
