Interesting, thanks for that! I'll need to keep my eyes out for that when looking for another set of wings.

Bumping this old thread. I have a tour jacket in my collection. Apparently belonged to an US Army vet who served with the 10th Mountain division as part of the UNSC backed NATO intervention (SFOR) in the Yugoslav wars. The jacket features this patch.   linkhttps://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/2810-tour-jackets/page/3/#comment-3224593  

Your schenkl's appear to be 3"? Really nice pick ups!

Beautiful shells. My friends were at that show today. Waiting for their report. Congrats! I see why people enjoy collecting Civil War artillery.  Paul

A few new shells for my artillery collection I picked up today at Doswell VA civil war show.2 20lb federal parrots (1 short pattern) ,2 federal schenkl,Pattern 1 absterdam.. 8 inch and 10 inch shell ,both supposedly recovered around Fort Monroe..

The fabric is under glass on top of a hard surface, so the pictures are shot through glass. I'm a little anxious about busting open the frame. Here are a few more detail shots that may mean something to someone who knows more than me,  

Very nice and imagine very desirable. 

I'd definitely want to see better photos of the paint itself.
