    An exceptional condition .45 caliber cartridge belt with an "Old Reliable" Sharps Rifle Co. buckle.
    The 3-inch wide belt has 45 loops, 2-3/16 inches high.  It appears unused.  A .45-70 cartridge is placed in the loop with some effort and is securely retained.  The overall length of the belt, adjusted as shown in the photos, is 41 inches.  The cloth portion of the belt is 46 inches long and it looks like the maximum overall length to which it could be adjusted is about 45 inches.
    The belt would hold any of the Sharps 1874 model cartridges of diameter similar to .45-70.  Anything larger will not fit.
    The belt has no maker mark but has distinctive blue and olive thread woven into the sewn-on loops.  The belts by Hurlburt reportedly have three blue stripes woven in.  This piece has three brown/olive thread stripes on the front of the belt.  The loops have three stripes, consisting of olive/brown at the top, dark blue in the middle, and olive over blue at the bottom.
    The belt is marked "loops 45" on the reverse in green ink and has a two digit number that looks like "2H." The second character is not legible.
    The buckle is by T.C. Orndorff, of the Anson Mills 1881 patented design.
