    Default Closet Cleaning Sale

    I have a few items that have been sitting in my closet for a couple of years. I may have more later depending how far the cleaning goes.

    #1 is a size 46 taupe on brown jean cloth enlisted frock from Blockade Runner. It has only been worn about five times for living histories, never for any kind of battle event. It is in near new condition with some modifications. I hand topstitched the perimeter of the coat in a brown thread and redid the buttonholes as well. Has cast brass Block I Buttons*came with coat). I paid $190 plus shipping for it brand new, am asking $175 - I will pay for shipping, including tracking number and insurance.


    I would prefer a cashier's check or USPS money order.

    Civil War Items for Sale 006.jpgCivil War Items for Sale 007.jpgCivil War Items for Sale 008.jpg#2 is a mechanics hat from same vendor of same color, worn once. I took it apart, removed the black cloth lining and replaced it with a red checked cotton one, hand sewed it back together, made a leather adjustable strap for it which I attached with two black jappaned tin buttons. I paid $35 new, with all the modifications I did I am asking $40 - I will pay for shipping, including tracking number and insurance.

    Sorry about leaving that out. I wear about a 7 1/2, and I believe this hat still has a bit of room.

    The nearly new jeanswool frock is now down to $145. Thats over fifty bucks off what you would pay for a new one when you add the fact I am paying for the shipping. This has barely been worn and would be a good addition to anyone portraying confederate at one of the upcoming Shiloh 150ths. Treat Yourself or make someone happy for Christmas!
