Early Original Eley's “Sporting” Percussion Cap Tin Partial

This is an original Civil War era tin of percussion caps manufactured in London by Eley Brothers.  The tin is partially full, 20-25%, labeled for “Sporting” arms.  Measuring 1 ¾ inch tall the japanned tin remains in very good condition with some minor scratching of the finish.  The original green primary label is in very good condition with graphics with some missing pieces along the edges and overall clear and crisp graphics and a partial side label remains with “ELEY BR” still visible.  Perfect to pair with your antique percussion shotgun or rifle.
