Haversacks For Military And Civilian Use

HAVERSACKS We are please to offer you these detailed copies of documented  Civil War era haversacks. We offer both military and civilian bags. Each bag is carefully patterned from original specimens, period patterns and government specifications.  Features found on the various bags include hand sewing, our own hand made wooden buttons, period correct tin buttons, period correct hardware and a high attention to capturing the fine details of each original. These are historically correct, museum quality haversacks suitable for use in reenacting, museum exhibition and for collectors. They will provide years of service if properly cared for. The only area we depart from the originals is we do not use period paint recipes. The bag is coated with the same non-toxic coating as our Knapsacks for your protection. The one place we deviate from the original haversacks is the coating. 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 Linseed Oil Treated Cloth Can Spontaneously Combust Please let us tell you about the Hazards of Period Paint by Clicking Here You will be retuned to this page so you may continue shopping.
