1831 dated horn and pouch with Liberty, fish, horse, scroll and vine, geometrics

[Shreckmeister]

1831 was the year of Nat Turner's rebellion.  I wonder if the "Liberty" might have been in reference to that.  Owner's initials
of J * SH happen to be my 4th Great Grandfather's initials.

I'm actually more interested in the pouch than the horn. Can we get more detail photos of the pouch? Is there a gusset? Is it a full gusset, or does it stop part way up each side? What are the dimensions? Any internal features like pockets? What does the back look like?

[Shreckmeister]

I’ll get some detail posted Monday. Yes there is an internal pocket.  It’s a rather large bag.  Thanks

It looks like the pouch might date later than the horn. It looks like machine stitching and brass harness rivets were used.

Thats a very unique way of attaching the horn spout to the strap of the pouch . Awesome horn as well !
