    Description

    Continental Army Jacket. Connecticut 6th Regiment. Hand Made Wool, Size 40.
    Belonged to my neighbor who had it made for him when he was 5 foot 10 inches and weighed 200 pounds. His suit jacket size at the time was a 40 regular.
    Tramped around in during many encampments and parades for 6 years in the NE. Stains are reportedly from ale, sweat, and weapons residue, it has never been cleaned. Has small holes around collar, see photos.
    Decorated with pewter buttons, comes with some extras.
    My neighbor was a good man, always happy to help a friend in need. I believe that this coat carries his exceptionally good vibe.
