It is rare to find an unopened pack of Civil War cartridges, let alone Smith carbine cartridges.
These are the paper and foil cartridges manufactured under Poultney’s patent. The patent (#40,988 dated December 15, 1863) was originally granted to Thomas Rodman and Silas Crispin who assigned it to Thomas Poultney.

Perfect pack with well centered label and tear-string on the side. [jet]
UPS SHIPPING REQUIRED.
