Description
This is a remarkable U.S. Cavalry bugle associated with Company A, 7th Cavalry Regiment, one of the most storied units in American military history. Bugles of this type were essential tools for communication on the battlefield and in camp, used to signal commands, formations, and daily routines before the widespread use of radios.
Constructed of brass with a traditional single-loop body and flared bell, this example bears clear identification to Company A, 7th Cavalry, making it a rare and highly desirable artifact. The surface shows a rich aged patina with signs of wear consistent with field use, adding to its authenticity and historic value.
The 7th Cavalry is best remembered for its frontier service in the late 19th century and for later deployments across the 20th century. A bugle marked to this regiment is an exceptional piece for collectors of U.S. military history, particularly those focused on cavalry, western expansion, or regimental artifacts.
