Here is a fine non-excavated cavalry spur. This is one of the exact spurs that is pictured and described on page 120 of the fine spur book by Dr. Bob Baird entitled Confederate, US and Other Civil War Used Spurs. He explains how this is a spur of the style that is referred to as a private purchased spur because many different variations were sold to the well to do soldiers. This one is interesting because of the extra long rowel neck. This is a gorgeous looking spur! On the back of the spur legs it has the stud attachments instead of the usual strap loops holes. It even has the buckle on one side. On the inside of the spur it has the "WHITE & WOOLWICH". Dr. Baird states that Woolwich was in London and has been manufacturing since the early 1700's. He also notes that this large spur is 6-3/4ths inches in overall size. . It has a beautiful non-excavated patina with a untouched color to the brass. The spur is in fine non-excavated condition for its age. This is a great looking spur from all angles!
