Isaac and Campbell Knapsack

No, We Do Not Use Period Paint Recipes YES! We use a latex base coating on all our knapsacks and haversacks. Missouri Boot & Shoe Company made a conscious decision not to use period paint due to fire and health hazards both to our ourselves and to our customers.   Boiled Linseed Oil is a main ingredient in “period paint recipes.” It contains lead, arsenic, beryllium, chromium, cadmium and nickel. These elements are toxins, carcinogens and teratogens

The Isaac and Campbell Knapsack   Our Isaac and Campbell knapsack is a faithful copy of the originals. The original knapsacks were manufactured by the Isaac and Campbell Company in London and brought into the U. S. by the Confederacy.                       Our detailed historically correct copy features hand sewn details and cloth herringbone twill tape ties that are used to close the fold pocket on the knapsack. The russet leather harness is made of top grade leather and with historically correct 1 1/4 inch roller buckles.   The corners of the cloth bag are protected by bridle leather corner guards as were the original knapsacks. The leather harness is colored with a period dye giving it a rich russet color. The bag is coated with the same non-toxic coating as all our knapsacks and haversacks.    Upon request we will stamp the white cloth inside the bag with one of the Isaac and Campbell markings found on examples of originals. Since some do not want the marking on their bags we do not put the stamping on unless requested to do so.

"Mr. Knapsack" at age 35   These pictures are of a bag we made over 35 years ago! It was sent in a few years ago for some repair work by one of our valued customers. He reported using it heavily over the years and just wanted to get it "dressed up" to use many more years. It is STILL in the Field Today.   But you must care for your bag and not abuse it if you want similar results.
