The carbine cartridge box is missing the wood block. Someone, probably, during its period of use, put a box plate on it. Good overall condition except for the latch tab, which has a weak place, but is still intact. The box plate has a deep, old, brown patina. Inside the front flap, in ink, appears to be M.B. Peckenpaugh. I ran a quick search of the Civil War records and found no matches. A strong maker's mark, C. Peters, is visible inside.
