  • Inside And Out Federal Artillery Frock

    Gents-

    From time to time I receive emails from a CW relic dealer with current items for sale. The last installment included this Federal Artillery Frock. It looks to possibly be a private purchase officer grade frock. Federal frocks are not exceedingly rare but there are some nice shots of the interior lining which is nicely quilted. Over the years some folks here working on such projects have been looking for these type of pictures so I thought I would share. Without further a do...enjoy.
