Description
Original NS Meyer, New York U.S. Army Infantry branch insignia set featuring the iconic crossed rifles design worn by Infantry soldiers.
This matching pair remains with its original Meyer display card. One insignia was temporarily removed from the card for photography to clearly show the reverse maker mark and attachment hardware, but both insignia are included as a complete matching set.
The reverse is clearly marked "NS MEYER INC. NEW YORK", one of the most respected and collected names in American military insignia. The rifles retain a bright gold finish with crisp detail and dual-post clutch-back attachments.
The crossed rifles have represented the U.S. Army Infantry Branch since the 19th century and remain one of the most recognizable branch insignia in military history. This original Meyer set offers excellent display appeal and is ideal for collectors, veterans, reenactors, or military history enthusiasts.
