Sold for: $125.00

Original era manufacture. An issue quality set, with a 1929-30 1-M QM Depot stamp in the left sleeve, and a 1921-22 2-S stamp in the waistband. All buttons are present, brass collar emblems in place, and no evidence of moth issues. The trousers are stenciled with the last name of POIST. Ancestry provides muster roll listings from 1917-1925. The coat is also named but blurred as to be unreadable, but pretty sure it is not POIST. An old Marine once told me, "once you put on that uniform, you were instantly a gentleman". The coat is a size 36 regular, the trousers have a 32 inch waistband and 29 inch inseam. There are about four small moth bites in the trousers, one small 2x5 mm hole in the back of the coat.
