That is an awesome display! You have a generous friend there! I have found out that there are a lot of very generous people in this hobby. Once again, BEAUTIFUL display!

This thread makes me happy and sad. Happy because it's an awesome display and sad because I realized I've thrown away more than a few of those percussion caps. I had no idea what they were.
 
He sure must be a close friend to part with all those goodies ! Very nice display.
I just finished reading a great book on the CW called "Hardtack & Coffee" by John D. Billings. It is the best book I have read on the daily life of the soldier. If your library does not have it they can send for it through the Interlibrary Loan system, usually at no charge to you. steve in so az
