Pattern 1902 US Light Cavalry Sword Saber CINCINNATI REGALIA CO.
This is a beautiful presentation sword in very good condition.chrome is very nice, and the knot is almost perfect.Please notice the chip in the hand guard shown in the pictures.It does tattle in the scabbard and has basically nothing holding it in. It will fall out if held upside down.I have no idea if this is normal.Please see pictures for a better description.
I do not know the year of manufacture however here is little bit about the Cincinnati Regalia Company.

Thank you !

TheCincinnati Regalia Companyplayed a significant role in the late 1800s when secret societies thrived in Cincinnati. These societies included theOdd Fellows,Wise Men,Druids, andElks. The city was home to nearly50 Odd Fellows lodges or encampmentsback in 1890. TheIndependent Order of Odd Fellowswas one such fraternal organization that admitted women, thanks to the creation of the auxiliaryDaughters of Rebekahin 1851. Their magnificent eight-story temple once stood on Fourth Street, covering half a block. Alongside the Masons, the Odd Fellows were among Cincinnati’s largest secret societies.

These societies maintained secrecy for various reasons. While they provided networking opportunities, they also wanted to filter out undesirables. However, their primary purpose was to offer financial support to ill or indigent members and death benefits to their families. The secret symbols, handshakes, passwords, and rituals ensured that assistance reached only initiates and not impostors.

Businesses thrived by supplying the special robes, regalia, ribbons, and other items required for lodge rituals. Among them wasCharles Carter’s Cincinnati Regalia Company.This company catered to the needs of secret societies, providing essential items for their ceremonies and gatherings1.The Cincinnati Regalia Company was a distributor of fraternal organization swords and other regalia, although it wasn’t the actual manufacturer2. Their paper label inside a wooden chest read: "The Cincinnati Regalia Co. Manufacturers of Regalia, Supplies, and Costumes for all Secret Societies.Military and Band Uniforms and Equipments, Banners and Flags."3.

So, the Cincinnati Regalia Company played a crucial role in supporting the vibrant world of secret societies during that era.
