*****WELCOME TO THE CRITTENDEN SCHMITT ARCHIVES ON LINE MUSEUM
AND DE-ACQUISITION SALE.
THE ITEMS IN OUR REFERENCE COLLECTION DATE BACK TO ABOUT
1849 WHEN MY GREAT UNCLE, RALPH CRITTENDEN AND HIS PARTNER RICHARD
TIBBALS CREATED THE FIRST SUCCESSFUL AMMUNITION FACTORY IN THE
UNITED STATES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF DRAWN CARTRIDGES , PERCUSSION
CAPS AND ALL FORMS TO AMMUNITION OF INTEREST TO THE GUN
MANUFACTURING FACTORS OF THE DAY. SPENCER , SHARPS , HENRY ,
VOLCANIC, JENNINGS, REMINGTON,
JOSLYN,WESSON,BALLARD,BACON,BLISS,WARNER AND SMITH AND WESSON ALL
SOLD CRITTENDEN AND TIBBALS AMMUNITION UNDER THEIR OWN TRADE NAME.
THE UNION ARMY BOUGHT MILLIONS OF CTM PERCUSSION CAPS AND HUNDREDS
OF THOUSANDS OF SPENCER CARTRIDGES DURING LINCOLN?S WAR AND ALL OF
THE SPENCER AMMUNITION USED IS THE FIRST MAJOR BATTLES INCLUDING
GETTYSBURGH WERE ALL MADE BY CRITTENDEN AND TIBBALS.
**Over the course of the next couple of years we will be
offering for sale thousands of rare specimens of museum quality
many of which have never been offered for sale before and which you
will likely never see for sale again. Why are we selling this
archive and reference collection? After 150+ years of interest in
ammunition there is no one else interested in the field in our
family. My personal collecting has spanned 50 years and I am at an
age when it is time to stop and pass on such activities to
others.
