Re: Interior of Confederate Jacket
Watching the video again on the highest available definition, the belt loops do look a lot like the type on the May jacket. The lack of a center back seam is apparent as well. Very cool stuff....and I can't help but think about English garments that were produced with the one-piece back. Tait jackets of course but also some private-purchase imported stuff for officers. Were pre-cut English jackets imported and maybe constructed domestically?
