These vintage railroad lanterns are nothing short of amazing relics of railroading history! Each lantern was a crucial part of railway signaling, guiding trains through the night, warning crews of hazards, and ensuring smooth operation on the tracks. From the Dietz Beacon Dash Lamp, once mounted to early vehicles or rail equipment to cut through the darkness, to the blue and red signal lanterns, which played vital roles in train movements, these are true gems of industrial craftsmanship that transport us back to the heyday of American railroads!

The blue-lensed lantern is a fantastic find, as blue lights were commonly used for safety markers or designated equipment that should not be moved—meaning this lantern once played a direct role in keeping railroad workers safe. Meanwhile, the red-lensed lantern is a classic stop signal, marking the rear of trains, switch stands, or crossing warnings. Both lanterns still have their original vibrant lenses, showing off the bold colors that once cut through the darkness and guided locomotives on their journey. Their aged metal frames and well-earned patina add even more character, making them perfect for collectors, history lovers, or railroad enthusiasts! These aren’t just old lanterns—they’re pieces of history that tell the story of the iron rails that built a nation!

Such was the need for fighting knives during WW2 that many small independent knife makers stepped up to supply our boys with well crafted edged weapons. San Antonio Iron Works of San Antonio, Texas made fighting knives from cutdown blade portions of surplus M-1913 “Patton” sabers, and today, these San Antonio Iron Works knives remain scarce and desirable. This US Army WW2 San Antonio Iron Works Patton Saber Middle Section Sword Blade Fighting Knife is in Very Good Condition, with some sharpening to the blade edges, some scratching and patina at each side of the blade, some light loosening to the guard, some light chipping and hairline cracking to the spines of the handle scales, some verdigris to the left side of the handle scale rivets, and with some light overall age wear evident. Most interestingly, it features an 8" clip point bowie, full length fullered, double edge dagger blade with an unsharpened top false edge crafted from the middle section of a M-1913 Patton saber, sports elegant brown hardwood handle scales with finger grooves secured by two brass rivets, and boasts a long, wide steel guard with downturned ends. It’s complete with the original US Army WW2 San Antonio Iron Works Tooled Brown Leather Scabbard in Very Good Condition, with some light scattered darkening at front and back, remaining just a bit too short to fully accept the blade, resulting in a small gap between the throat and guard, and with some light overall age wear evident.

These striking vintage cowboy spurs from the 1940s capture the spirit and style of the Old West with eye-catching embellishments and bold Western flair. The standout features of this pair are the large spade rowels and the engraved "gal leg" heel bands—each designed in the shape of a woman's leg, complete with high-heeled boots, a cheeky nod to classic Western iconography popular during the mid-20th century. Spurs like these were more than just functional gear; they were expressions of personal style and cowboy culture. The 1940s saw a resurgence of romanticized Western imagery in Hollywood films, rodeos, and trick-riding performances. As such, many cowboys and showmen sported ornate, custom spurs that blended traditional motifs with playful or risqué designs like the ones seen here. These spurs feature deeply tooled leather straps, aged to a rich patina with natural wear from use and display. The metalwork shows intricate engraving along the heel bands and shanks, with a silver-nickel finish now showing a warm, timeworn character. The large 6-point spade rowels spin freely and add an authentic jingle when in motion. Whether displayed as part of a Western collection or worn for reenactments or cowboy action shooting, these embellished 1940s spurs are a classic representation of cowboy heritage with a twist of humor and charm.

These fringed buckskin leather pants are a classic relic of the American frontier, evocative of the rugged spirit of 19th-century pioneers, trappers, and scouts. Crafted from soft, supple buckskin—likely deerskin—these pants feature long side fringe running down each outer leg, a hallmark of traditional Western dress that served both functional and decorative purposes. The fringe helped to shed rain and added mobility in the brush, while also making a bold visual statement associated with the frontier lifestyle. Dating to the late 1800s, these trousers were most likely handmade, as indicated by the uneven stitching and natural shaping of the leather. The design is consistent with garments worn by frontiersmen, Plains Indians, and Western cowboys in the post-Civil War era. Buckskin was highly valued for its durability, quietness in movement, and resistance to wind—qualities that made it a staple for survival in the vast and often harsh Western territories. The pants show signs of age and use, including darkened areas, scattered small holes, and minor seam separation, all of which contribute to their authenticity and vintage appeal. The waistband is fashioned with stag buttons, and the overall cut is loose-fitting to allow ease of motion, whether on horseback or navigating rugged terrain. These buckskin pants are a fantastic example of utilitarian clothing in the old west, and a must have for historians and collectors alike.

This antique brass spittoon, marked "M.B. Co.", is a relic of the American Old West, dating back to 1888.

This particular example, crafted from solid brass, features a flared rim and weighted base to prevent tipping—hallmarks of well-made spittoons of the era. The "M.B. Co." marking likely refers to the Manning, Bowman & Co., a well-known metalware manufacturer operating in the late 19th century, producing high-quality brass and silver-plated items. The patina and natural wear on this spittoon add to its authenticity and charm, making it an excellent piece for collectors of Old West memorabilia or antique tobacciana. This spittoon would have sat in the corner of a bustling saloon, near a wooden bar where cowboys, lawmen, and travelers gathered for a drink and a game of cards.

The buttplate is a brass crescent plate with a trapdoor over a storage compartment (there is nothing in the compartment). The stock has scattered nicks, dings, scuffs and scratches. There is a thin crack at the rear of the top tang. There is a defined circle of wear around the sling swivel. The LOP measures 13 3/8" from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The plate has light wear with scattered light nicks and has the crystalline appearance of old brass. Overall, the stock is in Very Good condition as Antique.

Overall Condition: This rifle retains about 35% of its metal finish. There is some blue along the grooves between the barrel and magazine, mostly around the sling mount and the sleeve limiting screw on the right. Otherwise, the barrel assembly has mostly worn to white or gone to a light patina with scattered minor surface erosion and some nicks and scratches. The receiver has some nicks, scuffs and scratches, there are some light tool marks at the top edges of the sideplates. The receiver has the crystalline appearance of old brass. The action shows operational wear. The screw heads range from sharp to tool marked with strong slots. The markings range from clear to worn, but legible. Overall, this rifle is in Fine condition as Antique.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: The Henry rifle was designed in 1860. Sources aren’t clear about exactly when it began production, but by 1866 about 14,000 had been manufactured. At that time, New Haven Arms became Winchester Repeating Arms Company and the Henry evolved into the M1866 Winchester. A few thousand Henry Rifles were purchased by the Union during the Civil War and many more were privately purchased by Union soldiers. It quickly became known as the “rifle that you could load on Sunday and shoot all week long”. We can’t imagine what it must have been like for the Confederate troops to have faced these rapid firing rifles armed with only their muzzleloaders, but there were only a few Civil War battles where the Henry played a decisive role, one of which was the Battle of Franklin.

This rifle was made ca. 1865, either right at the end of or shortly after the Civil War. The serialized parts match with matching assembly numbers on the barrel and magazine sleeve. The rifle has surprisingly strong mechanics for such an old gun and the bore is in equally good condition given its age. Any Henry will make a great addition to a collection of lever action rifles, Winchesters, or early repeating cartridge firearms, and we’re sure this one will be no exception.
