Pre-WW1 United States Army Horse Brush. “U.S.” embossed on leather. Size approximately 6 3/4 inches x 4 inches. Very heavily worn condition. Additional Notes: The Pre-WWI United States Army horse brushes were essential tools for grooming cavalry horses, ensuring their health and readiness. These brushes were often made with durable materials like leather and soft bristles. For example, the Herbert Brush Manufacturing Co. produced brushes with a russet leather body and strap, stamped with “US” within an oval. Another notable example is the 1904 Pattern Horse Grooming Brush, marked “Rock Island Arsenal,” which was widely used by the U.S. Army. See Additional Information for shipping dimensions.
