Display!Decorative display featuring two embroidered red horseshoe sleeve insignia mounted on a black background, representing the Civil War Union Army farrier specialty. A handwritten note affixed to the reverse states that the horseshoe insignia was worn by special soldiers serving as farriers (horse shoers and blacksmiths) and that the red color denotes the artillery branch. The display measures approximately 12 inches wide by 13 inches tall and includes a cord for wall hanging. Surface wear, light creasing, and age-related handling wear are visible to the mounting board, consistent with age. An attractive military-themed display piece with collectible appeal for Civil War enthusiasts and militaria collectors.
