These early Civil War pants are based on the very rare regulation 1858 US mounted artillery officer trousers. These of private purchase, being for an officer, are entirely hand sewn. These are made of a dark blue wool broadcloth. They have with French style pockets that fasten at the upper rear corner by a cloth covered button. A narrow in seam red wool cord (welt) runs on the outer leg from the bottom of the waist band to the cuff. The cuffs are turned in, lined for nine inches on the sides and front and have buttons for an instep leather boot strap. There is a small watch pocket at the top of the waist band right side. The rear waist has a V-notch and an exterior cloth adjustment belt with Japanned buckle. The waistband is lined and has a 4-inch-long lining of polished cotton. There is an interior small cotton belt. The fly has 4 buttons. The top front fastening button is missing. There are of course no belt loops and if there were suspender buttons these are now missing. These are in excellent condition with a few scattered insect nips. One expects to see such trousers once in a decade.    [pe][ph:L]
