"O.W. BARTLETT COMPANY B, 1ST MAINE CAVALRY. The 1st Maine
Cavalry was one of the hardest fought units of the entire Civil War & lost the
greatest number of soldiers killed in action of any cavalry regiment in the
entire army. Bartlett’s biography indicates that he enlisted at East
Stoneham, Oxford County, Maine on February 20, 1864. He participated in
a great number of engagements until the very end of the war & was always
w/ his men & “Bore a gallant part of all the engagements”. A marvelous
opportunity to own a group of Civil War material from a cavalry trooper who
served in a well fought Maine unit.
1) This wonderful identified group begins w/ a cased sixth plate ambrotype
of Private O.W. Bartlett, a full standing view in uniform w/ cavalry saber. The
image is cased in an embossed paperboard case w/ blue velvet interior.
2) Pinned inside the case is Bartlett’s silver identification badge, a jeweler
made pin, being a shield surmounted by 2 cut out crossed sabers. Within
the shield is hand engraved “O.W. / Bartlett / Co. B / 1st Me. Cav.”.
3) 1858 Regulation US canteen w/ cover & partial strap has Bartlett's
stenciled intiials & unit as seen in photos.
4) Regulation US Cavalry saber maker marked "MANSFIELD & LAMB /
FORESTDALE RI". Opposite side is marked "US / JM / 1864". The hilt has a
pair of intials scratched into quillon which are not Bartlett's (DW).
CONDITION: image is fine w/ good contrast, oxidation halo around edge of
plate. ID pin is also fine w/ silver patina retaining its original T-bar pin &
catch. Canteen is overall very good, sling is tattered & only partial intact,
cover is soiled w/ reductions but painted identification is discernible. Cavalry
saber is very good overall, blade is gray w/ scattered staining, markings are
crisp & easily discerned, grip is complete w/ tight wire wrap, scabbard has
iron patina & a couple lg. dents near drag, brass has light mustard patina.
