This H-shaped, stamped belt plate was adopted by the U.S. Army in 1886 and used on what is sometimes called the “loose-loop” belt, which has woven cartridge loops and ends that are secured to the belt plate using two brass “keepers” with wire loops.

This blue belt and brass plate were used by the New York state troops, especially when called into service in the Spanish-American War and is sometimes seen in period photographs taken in Cuba and the Philippines.

This example has dark blue color and is made with the early single row of cartridge loops. There are two loops that were chewed away by some rodent. The belt plate features raised letters “NY” in the center but no patent information stamped on the tongue in the back.

The weaving is good and solid. A good example of the army cartridge belt that was kept in use by the volunteers right through the Spanish American War.  [jet][ph:L]
