#4369 - Civil War Period Wallet
A very attractive larger sized leather billfold from the 1860- 1880 era. Has nice soft supple feel with an oxblood color. The closure strap is in good shape. Inside is marvellously constructed: with two azure owl's-eye semi-circles that form pouches to hoild coins or stamps. The inner scalloped flap then lifts to reveal inner cardboard dividers marked for 1 to 100 dollar bills. There are also two red lined larger sections for bills/receipts at the rear. Overall a super-duper man's accessory from mid-late Nineteenth Century.
