American Civil War Camp Equipment

Dog Tent / Shelter Half, Civil War

    It takes 8 tent stakes to set up a full dog tent (2 halves buttoned together.)

    These are available in either 10.38 oz UNTREATED canvas duck or 10.38 oz Sunforger with flame retardant.

Wall Tents for Officers & Hospitals

    Flys for these tents come with brass grommets along the side edges and a grommet at the midway point along each end. Of course all grommet positions are well reinforced.

    The lengths of these tents and flys are variable because they're made from several canvas panels. Because canvas panels vary in width between lots the lengths of the tentage above may differ one way or the other a couple of inches.

Sibley Tent

    You can also add the optional 33" high wall to increase the headroom. Sibleys with walls need extra ropes and stakes, but no extra poles.

    It is also offered in a scaled down 2/3 size version.

Campaign Lap Desk

   In the 19th century, British deck officers kept the daily log and traveling civilians wrote letters on lap desks like these. The originals were commissioned from renowned designers like Chippendale, Hepplewhite and Sheraton. This replicas, as practical as it is stylish, would delight even the most discerning gentleman. This hand-made solid plantation mahogany desk has bronze hardware, two small secret compartments, space for inkwells, styluses and lots of paper. It comes with a bottle of black/India ink, 2 wood stylus and nibs. l 16" x w 10" x h 4".

    Not guaranteed to be 100% authentic for any specific period, but a good item for general 19th Century (1800s) impressions.

Pictures of other reproduction and original Lap desks, NOT FOR SALE.

     We are hoping to have more lap desks available for purchase by Summer 2011.
