Based upon an original in The Museum of the Confederacy, the original shirt was worn by a surgeon named Booth, the fabric for this shirt is believed to have been made in England or France and run through the blockade.
This shirt is 100% wool with a cotton half lining in the upper chest area and shoulders, hand top stitching and buttonholes, with Prosser buttons. This is an excellent reproduction of the original. Despite being just as difficult today as it was in the 1860’s N.J. Sekela was able to have the Confederate (2nd) national flags printed on wool material. The wool material is soft and comfortable, I am keeping one these for myself.
