Here's a cool ebay find.....
An Allegheny Arsenal McClellan tree... Not the shape of the pommel and the rest of the tree, the hardware including stirrup strap loop, the rawhide work, etc. , etc.
Check it out.....comments?
Oh,k and here is a mighty fine reproduction pair of M1859 spurs made by F. Burgess- probaly in the mid 1980's to early 1990's.
Burgess was known for his superior quality and attention to authentic details. These are better than most of the sutler spurs you get today.
