Civil War Officers Ivory Pocket Diary

Civil War Officer’s Ivory Pocket Diary 1.5" W x 0.25" D x 3" H

Contains six pages of natural ivory (Monday through Saturday).
Being that Sunday was a day of rest, that page was always left out.
The inner pages are protected with a thicker ivory outer page cover at front and back.
Outer cover silver shield device pinned to the exterior surface along with a silver clasp and hinged hook pinned at the upper edge of the diary.
Daily entries were made upon the appropriate flat hard slabs of ivory, usually with a lead pencil and could be easily erased when no longer needed; no inscriptions on the diary.
