Some years ago we acquired a small number of earlier 1800s through Civil War era straight shank (eyeless) fish hooks with original hand tied cotton cord leader and are offering them here individually priced for the antique fishing gear enthusiast or Civil War collector who would enjoy having an example. Remaining in original to the period, unused condition after decades of storage, this example of a once so common piece of basic fishing equipment will lay well in any period fishing grouping. A handy item in the haversack or dittybag of any well prepared Civil War troop. As with all direct sales, we are pleased to offer a no questions asked three day inspection with refund of the purchase price upon return as purchased! Thanks for visiting Gunsight Antiques !
