President
Lincoln Outfit- Although President Lincoln had more
than one set of clothes, we offer here the outfit he was most frequently
photographed in- the double breasted frockcoat, shawl vest and
trousers in black wool. President Lincoln is said to have stated
he would wear black until the war was over to mourn for the country.
Frockcoat
is double breasted with peak lapels and has five buttonholes per side
that start near the top of the peak and go to the waistline.
A nice quality black wool flannel is standard,
with black cotton body lining. A deluxe grade of
16 ounce fine quality wool is available as an up-grade. A
black polished cotton lining is used with the deluxe wool option. Buttons
are sewn on for
you.
Vest is single
breasted with shawl collar with black cotton back and natural cotton
lining. Five buttons close the front and are sewn on. If
either the
deluxe wool option or black ribbed silk option is chosen, black polished cotton is used on the back to match
the coat lining.
Trousers are black wool
flannel with
button fly and side seam pockets. A waistline watch pocket is
standard on the right side with a back belt for "fine tuning" the
waist size. The deluxe
wool is offered as an option in the trousers also. Buttons are
sewn on in the double button pattern for our #1907 Suspenders.
