    Columbus Depot jacket and trousers from Child's material, & Sekela McDowell cap

    For sale...

    Exceptionally fine CS uniform items.

    1. Columbus Depot Jacket. Made around 1999 entirely with Charlie Child's material. Patterned and made by my dear friend and period clothier extraordinaire Joe Hill (if you know him and his abilities, enough said). Note the extensive hand sewn top-sticking, attention to detail, etc. Anyway (shameless plug for Joe, but legit). Although he custom measured it for me and a few pounds ago in 1999... call it a 46L jacket. This is not for the short or well fed fella. I will be happy to send specific measurements of its dimensions to any interested party. If you do purchase it and the fit is way off, send it back (on your dime) for a refund minus my return shipping. The quality of this jacket is second to none. I wish I were as athletic and lean as I was almost 20 years ago as this am one fine item. Worn at two events back in 1999-2000 and have been in my closet ever since. $250 shipped

    2. Generic CS trousers also made by Joe, from Charlie Child's material, as above, around 1999... For reference, call these a 34 to 36 waist, with 36 inseam. With plain cuffs, normal height humans can have the cuffs taken up with a little sewing. I seem to have shang-hi'd some of the buttons at some point for another pair of trousers. So as noted in the pics, you'll need a few buttons. But otherwise these are made with the same attention to detail as the above jacket. As above, worn at the same two events... $125 shipped. Same goes as above regarding measurements and return.

    3. McDowell style CS cap. This one was made by Nick ************. I wore it for all of a day at Perryville in 2016. It is a very fine cap, selling only because it is excess to my needs. Measures 21 3/4" inside the sweatband. $100 shipped.




    Payment by money order or check prefered. Will take paypal so long as it is no-fee (or add 3.5%). Shipping by USPS priority mail.

    If all three items strike your fancy, package deal for all three for $450 shipped

    Thanks for looking...

    Regards

    Ben
