A 21 x 19 inch cotton reproduction based on a handkerchief associated with Joseph Arnold of the 1st and 26th Wisconsin Infantry.

A Civil War reproduction handkerchief based on an original artifact in the collection of the Oshkosh Public Museum.

The handkerchief is associated with Joseph Arnold, who served in the 1st Wisconsin Infantry and later the 26th Wisconsin Infantry. Arnold participated in major campaigns and battles including Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the March to the Sea.

This reproduction was created with permission from the Oshkosh Public Museum, with a portion of proceeds supporting the museum. The heavier cotton cloth and restored colors were selected to reflect the original handkerchief as it may have appeared in the 1860s.

    One of the nicest replica handkerchiefs I have seen! I hand-washed and rinsed it it three times, and the color stopped running just fine. A tremendous addition to my late-war impression!

    It's great to be able to carry a handkerchief of the type that was possibly carried in the Atlanta Campaign. One problem with the product though, you need to do a better job setting the red color. Fortunately I was warned beforehand that the red would run so I didn't end up with pink drawers. Had to soak the handkerchief in salt water 3 times to set the color. If I had wiped my face before setting the color it would have looked like I had a head wound.
