Breathtaking \'Time Capsule\' condition. This 130-year-old textile isunissued New Old Stock (NOS). Unlike most 19th-century military cordage, this piece showszero moth damage, zero fraying, and no UV fading. The 36-inch 1880s Cavalry Yellow/Orange cord remains supple and strong. Purchased from the renownedHayes Otoupalikin 1995 and meticulously preserved in a climate-controlled, smoke-free environment for 31 years. You will not find a better example of this Indian Wars-era artifact. Was not put on display after purchasing, just stored in its original shipping box. Photo of my purchase from Hayes is displayed. This is a rare chance to upgrade your collection with a piece that looks exactly as it did when it left the quartermaster\'s depot over 130 years ago.
