Original Dodrige county West Virginia pouch and horn
mountainman70:
Hello all. Here is a Dodrige county pouch and horn from ca 1850. It came with a halfstock 30 cal rifle I bought back in 2011, and built a close copy of. Both guns now live out west. Rifle was attributed to Sam Sherwood.
Only thing in pouch was the tin of caps. No strap on pouch, as you see it .
Best regards, Dave F 8) 8)

Crow Boy:
Thanks for posting. Very interesting. Is that bag turned except for the bit in the middle (creating the point at the bottom)?

Marcruger:
I think that pucker at the bottom is where the leather selvage on the inside was not trimmed close, and predictably buckled when turned. I could be wrong though. I sure have been wrong before, and will be in the future. God Bless, Marc
