President Lincoln Outfit: Although President
Lincoln had more than one set of clothes, we offer here the outfit he was
most frequently photographed in- the double breasted frockcoat, shawl vest
and trousers in black wool. President Lincoln is said to have stated he
would wear black until the war was over to mourn for the country.
Frockcoat: is double breasted with peak lapels and has five buttonholes per
side that start near the top of the peak and go to the waistline. A nice
quality black wool flannel is standard, with black cotton body lining. A
deluxe grade of 16 ounce fine quality wool is available as an up-grade. A
black polished cotton lining is used with the deluxe wool option. Buttons
are sewn on for you.
Vest: is single breasted with shawl collar with black cotton back and natural
cotton lining. Five buttons close the front and are sewn on. If either the
deluxe wool option or black ribbed silk option is chosen, black polished
cotton is used on the back to match the coat lining.
Trousers: are black wool flannel with button fly and side seam pockets. A
waistline watch pocket is standard on the right side with a back belt for
"fine tuning" the waist size. The deluxe wool is offered as an option in the
trousers also. Buttons are sewn on in the double button pattern for our
#1907 Suspenders. Made in the USA!
Hat: This is the Abe Lincoln Stove Pipe Hat. The hat is 7
1/2 inches tall and has a 2 inch brim. Made of wool felt, it is black with a
black ribbon around the crown and a bound brim. It is a copy of the Lincoln
Hat in the Smithsonian Museum. This hat is also available in other colors
