Those Were The Days

Those of you who have been involved with collecting militeria
on a long term basis may remember the company, Z.M. Military
Research. Though long gone from the scene, the company is still
fondly remembered by many collectors. I had occasion recently
 to look through some of my old Z.M. catalogs and came across
the very catalog where I made my first purchase from them,
a U.S. Model 1860 light cavalry saber in superb condition, $24.99!
 I did a few scans from the catalog and have posted them here.
Whether you are familiar or not with the company, those prices alone
should stimulate your sense of nostalgia for the good ol' days of
collecting Civil War militeria. Click on image to open larger version
