Could someone positively I.d this tunic as an Indian wars era Mass. state militia tunic? The buttons and stamps check out. Just not certain of the era. Thnks a bunch.

Yeah. I saw a 1888 stamp in the lining just now. Cross referencing some imaging. Thanks.

The Second Corps of Cadets wore all red uniforms like that. The picture I attached is a late 19th century poster printed by King's Bohemian Beer in Boston entitled "Second Corps of Cadets 1785 - 1894.
