EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print titled "Inside of Armward, c. 1870" captures a fascinating glimpse into the weaponry and military history of 19th century America. Taken by an American photographer in Maryland, the image showcases a room filled with artillery guns at its center, surrounded by rifles, gunbelts, and pouches hanging on the walls. What makes this photograph truly unique is the arrangement of sabers suspended from the ceiling, resembling ceiling fans. The attention to detail is evident as each saber hangs meticulously alongside one another. Interestingly, the pouches bear the number "122" adding an intriguing element to this historical snapshot. Signs on the wall proudly display "Company H" suggesting that this room served as a weapons storage area for a specific company or regiment during that time period. This insight provides valuable context about how military organizations operated back then.
