Description: ( CELL PHONE USERS PLEASE CLICK THE "SEE FULL DESCRIPTION" LINK BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS AND PHOTOGRAPHS! ) Rare 19th C. U.S. Military Scrimshaw Powder Horn / Regiment of Light Artillery / American Eagle Click images to enlarge Description For Consideration is a Interesting Early 19th Century (1810-1850) U.S. Military Scrimshaw Decorated Powder Horn from an Unidentified Regiment of Light Artillery with a American Eagle & Shield c1810-1850 Offered to you is this Amazing early 19th Century American made Powder Horn with interesting historical Scrimshaw decoration showing an American Eagle with the U.S. Shield and 13 Stars above its head. Below that is written "Hie--nst Regiment of Light Artillery" The first would is sadly partially hidden by damaged areas to the base which prevents me to make out the missing letters. The words are framed in a lined drawn box and has vine decorations to the right of it. This horn may have been used during the War of 1812 or sometime there after as it is hard to date this piece. The Powder Horn measures an incredibly 13.0 inches long by 2.5 inches wide plug. The spout is finely carved and narrow. The base plug is carved in red walnut and has no signs of a iron staple or hardware for a strap given this horn was not carried in the field another way or may have been replacedĀ at some point in it's life. Condition is quite nice for the age with some usual ware and soiling to the Cow Horn and has some deep areas of surface loss by the base plug nails and sadly on the name of which Regiment this came from. We have little information on this horns history as it came of of a large Military Collection in Up-State New York and the age of this piece can range from the early 19th century to even the 1850's, though from the Scrimshaw Art work and the Eagle and Shield we would think its a War of 1812 era piece! This is an Ex-Museum Piece which had previously been on display in a Private Collection in Worcester, Massachusetts for many years!
