ORIGINAL CONFEDERATE NAVAL CIVIL WAR BLOUSE BUTTON

Description

A BEAUTIFUL RARE CONFEDERATE NAVY OFFICERS BLOUSE BUTTON, THE BUTTON REMAINS IN THE CONDITION IT WAS FOUND  EXCELLENT AND UNCLEANED. THIS BLOUSE BUTTON WAS EXCAVATED FROM THE SAND AT A BEACH JUST BEFORE ENTERING FORT MORGAN, AL.
AS YOU MAY KNOW, FORT MORGAN IS AT THE MOUTH OF MOBILE BAY. IT WAS THE FINAL ENFORCEMENT TO KEEP THE UNION NAVY FROM ENTERING THE BAY.  DURING THE CIVIL WAR, THERE WERE MORE THAN FIFTY CONFEDERATE SHIPS (AND OTHERS AS WELL) THAT RAN THE UNION BLOCKADE IN AND OUT OF MOBILE BAY WITH SUPPLIES, WEAPONS AND AMMUNITION FOR THE SOUTHERN DEFENSE CAUSE.  IN FACT, THE BATTLE OF MOBILE BAY WAS ONE OF THE LAST BATTLES OF THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES - THE CIVIL WAR.  JUST THINK ABOUT THE FACTS AND STORIES THE BUTTON COULD RELATE IF ONLY IT COULD SPEAK.
THIS ITEM WILL BE SENT USPS PRIORITY MAIL INSURED AND WILL REQUIRE A RECEIVING SIGATURE.  THANKS FOR READING.
