John Wayne Commemorative Cavalry Sword

Description

John Wayne Commemorative Cavalry Sword. Sword is pre-owned and in great condition, with just a few very minor handling marks on the blade. Display frame is in good condition, with some marks on the blue cloth as well as the frame itself. See pics for more details.
This John Wayne Commemorative Cavalry Sword was designed to acknowledge the films that John Wayne made depicting a US Cavalry officer. The sword is 39" long and sits on a display frame 43" by 12". The backing of the frame is cloth in Cavalry blue color.
The sword is made from tempered steel and has John Wayne on the front of the blade and Lest We Forget on the back. Lest We Forget was part of the sentiment on the "brand new silver pocket watch and chain" he was presented with as Captain Nathan Cutting Brittles by his troop on his retirement in She Wore A Yellow Ribbon. The handle is gold plated with ornate engraving and a gold sash.
