MEXICAN WAR EPAULETTES, CASE, AND OFFICER'S WHITE GLOVES
Nice set of gold officer's epaulettes dating from the Mexican War, all metal, 7 1/8" long with 3" fringe, padded and with a yellow silk backing with retaining pin. The epaulettes show signs of use but remain in very good condition. They are presented in the exceedingly rare original maker's fitted cardboard box, 9 1/4" x 5 3/4", bearing maker's label on top: "Wm. H. Smith & Co. Maiden Lane, New York Importers and Dealers in Military Goods, Guns, Pistols, Cutlery, &c." with handwritten note beneath: "1st. Lieut". Also present is a pair of the officer's matching white linen dress gloves, each with two white abalone buttons. Box and gloves are age-soiled. Overall very good.
