Hey all!
How common was it for the boys of '61-'65 to carry instruments on the march? And if so, how did they carry them? I have a reconstruction of a period minstrel banjo, and would like to take it to campaigner events, but am insecure about carrying it around without a case. Would soldiers store instruments when not on the march?
Also, where might I be able to find period banjo cases, reproduction or otherwise?
Thank you,
Finn
