Thoughts on this officers uniform?

[coloneustard]

I recently got this ww1 era officers uniform. 4 star Victory Medal and Mexican War Medal. Captain bars, 6-11 service stripes and honorable discharge. I need your guys thoughts on this. The fabric looks odd to me. There is a label in the inner pocket but sadly it’s unnamed.

Two uniforms for the same soldier? They seem to be in pristine condition. Honorably discharged infantry officer with up to a posible 11 months of service in the Zone of Operations. He has the Mexican Border Service Medal and WW1 Victory Medal. What information is on the attached tag on the second coat?

Thanks for your output. And no there is one uniform. I changed the US collar badge if that was your concern.

It came with the uniform.

All I see are captain's bars, not 1st lieutenant's on that first coat. A wound chevron would be on the right seleve. When the gold-colored chevron is on the left sleeve, it represents 6 months of service in the Zone of Operations. The red chevron above it is for honorable discharge. Crossed rifles is for Infantry.

As the question was about the fabric, my comment will be directed as such. American Officers and enlisted men had an incredible variety of sources for unforms both issued and private purchases. This includes both domestically produced as well as theater produced garments. The material looks fine for a private purchased uniform. Even among enlisted issued uniforms of a particular model Ie M1912, M1917, M1918 etc you will find variations in die lots and slight variation in cloth quality.

I’m trying to find a cap for this uniform. But I think it should be hard to find for that kind of material, since most of them are more greenish.

You do see a wide range of fabrics used, as mentioned they were private purchase items, so usually a higher grade of wool was used and a virtual rainbow of OD green.

I would get a visor hat, but a nice overseas hat with officer rank would be good too.

and not to toot my own horn, but Toot!  we do have a visor cap available:
