"Powder Horn From The American Revolutionary War 1775/1783."
Engraved powder or lead horns were remarkably necessary and personal possessions in colonial America. While engraved horns will continue to be used throughout the 19th century, they were most common between the French and Indian War and the American Revolution, a fairly short period (1754-1783). Without a powder horn nearby, the guns of this era were useless. Powder horns became even more important when their owners engraved them, revealing fascinating personal, historical and geographic information. The practice of powder horn engraving became popular around the French and Indian War because soldiers experienced prolonged waiting periods, as most of their time on an expedition would be spent sitting in or around a fort. a campfire. Horn in good general condition, with traces of use, see photos. Monogrammed FFS. Length 28 cm, width at the strongest 10 cm by 8 cm.
