Here is an original Civil War era tin of pistol-sized percussion caps made by Eley Brothers of London. The japanned tin remains in very good condition with only minor chipping to the finish. Tin is filled with pistol caps.
Original green label pasted to the top is in fair condition. Perhaps 20%-25% of the label is missing and the remainder shows wear and staining. The label originally read, “Eley Bros / 100 / Metal-Lined / Caps / Made Expressly For / Colt’s Pt. / Belt and Pocket / Pistols / Manufacturer’s London.” See the photos regarding the label, but much of that text can still be read.
Hard to find tin and a good accessory for a Colt revolver. [jet] [PH:L]
Shipment by UPS required.
