Original era manufacture. Olive gabardine wool four pocket coat, with a cuff stripe on each sleeve. Two overseas stripes on the left cuff, and a well made 26th Division SSI hand sewn on the left shoulder. On each shoulder epaulette is a nice WWI era Captains rank insignia, US on each collar, with an officers pattern Engineer castle on the right side. This insignia was on the coat at the time of our purchase but who knows when it was put there. Three of the five closure buttons are pinned in place and need to be resewn. Minor scattered mothing but nothing dreadful. Boston tailor's tag in the collar. Size about a 36-38.
