ken1967 Posted December 29, 2020 Share #1 Posted December 29, 2020 After quite a few years of searching, I finally snagged a nice cavalry dress coat to round out my M1885 coat collection. It's pretty hard to find the space for uniforms, so I decided to keep at least one for each of the main branches and picked the ones that had rank chevrons.

US Victory Museum Posted December 30, 2020 Share #4 Posted December 30, 2020 Quality is not expensive; it's priceless! It's what separates dedicated collectors from hoarders. I'd rather have a small collection of pristine uniforms than a pile of mediocre. It would appear that you share the same sentiment. Acquire, and then trade up. I am reminded of an adage my old high school Latin teacher was fond of saying, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever." I, as well as others on the forum, eagerly await additional photos from your collection. Thank you for sharing! Msn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodymyster Posted December 30, 2020 Share #5 Posted December 30, 2020 Good call on keeping the NCOs. I always enjoyed the gold trim on those dress uniform ranks vs the plain chevrons on the blouse / overcoat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
