This shows an original pair of very rare Union Hospital Stewards cloth chevron bands. They have hand stitched snake and staff of the medical profession since Greek times called the caduceus, still a symbol of physicians today. The edging is missing but cloth field and caduceus device are in superb condition. Such chevrons can be seen on photographic examples of Hospital Stewards' typical dress uniforms from Civil War reference books.
