Cartridge Belts with Border Embossing

After much searching, we have finally acquired an original leather embosser with original embossing patterns. Many of the old time saddle shops had embossers to decorate saddles, saddlebags, holsters, and belts. We now offer border embossed cartridge belts with period patterns. The numbers next to the patterns are the same numbers from the original tool catalog.

Attention
I can make the canvas belts with tan canvas. The canvas is natural (white) and I dye it with Rit dye. If you leave cartridges in the dyed canvas for long periods of time, months, it will corrode your cases. The tan is fine to use , I just wouldn’t store the cartridges in the belt. If unsure, go with the natural color.

Fish Slickers in the Cavalry?

The following text is from Douglas C. McChristian’s new book “Uniforms, Arms, and Equipment, The U.S Army on the Western Frontier, 1880-1892” Vol. 2

When the eighth cavalry made a record overland march from Texas to its new stations in Montana and the Dakotas in 1888, “several troops purchased what was known as the ‘fish brand’ slicker, which is of a yellow color, light and durable, and which covered the wearer and his saddle down to below his boot tops, and proved to be an almost perfect protection in the heavy rains that fell during the march, sometimes lasting all day.” Phelps, “From Texas to Dakota”.
