Pair of Wool Hand Knitted Civil War Mittens

Item Details

Description

Pair of Wool Hand Knitted Civil War Mittens Iidentified to John S. Cole, 3rd New Hampshire Volunteers. Tightly hand knitted of blue and white wool, 12" overall, perfect condition. Stitched to one mitten is an old ink script tag, "Loaned by Mrs. John S. Cole". These gloves were sold by an early Maine historical society, along with several other Civil War items, where they had been for many years. Obviously knitted by Cole's wife and apparently never used. Cole joined the 3rd NHV on July 29, 1861 and was discharged for disability October 17, 1861, dying shortly thereafter. A very rare piece of Civil War clothing.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids.
