CARTRIDGE-BOX PLATE, C. 1841

_USNM 60401-M (S-K 157). Figure 196._

[Illustration: FIGURE 196]

Slightly smaller than the preceding specimen, this brass plate bears

the eagle design popular from 1821 to 1851. Fitted with looped-wire

fasteners, it would have been a stock pattern for cartridge boxes.
