Sword display

[CW Watch & Sword Guy]

I finally got it together to display my small but growing sword collection: 13 Civil War swords (10 of them named), three 17th Century rapiers and two 18th/19th Century European court swords.

My Civil War swords are detailed below.

As much as possible, I try to connect my Civil War provenance sword and watch collections.

I think your collection is outstanding, and it's really great that you have provenances for so many of them.

You really got some beauties there !!!

Excellent display!

Then one day you just give up on neatness and just stick them in an old Civil War shell box.

If my collection continues to grow, I could get to that point too.

You just turn around one day and things are just kinda breathing up your air and getting badly under foot.
