Gentlemen,
I offer the following updates on current runs:
1) The first Private purchase officer sack coats are being shipped. These coats are of broadcloth with fold down collar; 5 button with breast and two waist pockets; lined but not quilted for a lighter fatigue coat with bound edges and velvet cuffs. Hand finished with hand buttonholes. Based on a coat owned by Captain Edwin Dillingham; 10th Vermont Infantry (EOG P. 119) and utilizing Mr. ************'s exstensive knowledge of th 19th century tailoring and visual examination of hundreds of garments both military and civilian, this coat is exactly what you would expect from this esteemed artisan - $450
2) The first officers sword belts are likewise being shipped out. Hand stiched through out, custom hardware and made to exacting specifications this belt will stand the test of time as it is sturdy enough to keep from bending like so many of the lesser quality and cheaper ones on the market. A short run but worth getting in on for this time only. - $360
3) After a hiatus of 6 months the pleated linen shirt is making its grand reappearance. Hand sewn pleats; tab for buttoning to top trouser button to keep pleats straight and Paris makers mark will make this the shirt to own for all officers and citizens alike...whats more it is on sale for $180 - Historic Clothiers
4) New York Depot unlined fatigue blouse - based on an original this blouse is hand finished, including rear seam with hand finished button holes. Size 44 and 46 currently available with more sizes which can be ordered at the introductry price of $135! - Historic Clothiers
5) States Rights Kepis - Orders being taken now!
Louisiana Kepi (run limited to now through end of February) - body is made of FHW blue/gray kersey and lined with black sateen, bound leather bill, and LA buttons. Blue band is a fine wool, hand dyed to achieve the desired color - $95 - Anderson Dry Goods
States Rights Kepis - Lining of "homespun". Body fabric, currently being offered is: FHW sheep gray/natural, Ben Tarts logwood 10J and
sumac 5J. Later two will change color with sun exposure.
For orders, options would include: Chin straps of silk, oil-cloth or
leather. Sweat band of oil-cloth or leather. Brims available in bound pasteboard or leather bound - $95 - Anderson Dry Goods
6) M1851 US Army Blanket - An exclusive blanket to Skillet Licker products, I am currently in negotiation for a full 5lbs blanket at a very attractive price, far less then the price of current offerings and a first rate reproduction. Nothing is finalized but I am seeking feedback from interested parties.
