Original U.S Civil War 1860 Light Cavalry Saber by Rare Maker J.B. Allere with Steel Scabbard c. 1863 U.S. Holsters The blade measures a hugeOriginal Item: One Only. This is a fine Union cavalry trooper's curved M 1860 saber, made by a very rare maker! There is not much information on the maker J. B. Allere of Chicago, and the company seems to only have made swords in 1863 It is in very nice honest matured condition. The markings are clear and the brass hilt totally undamaged with a nice honest patina. The leather grip wrapping is still in place, though it is worn and a bit cracked.
