RE: General Lew Wallace Study and Museum to study Lincoln assassination
Not that big. The coat is displayed at the museum at the Monocacy battlefield in Frederick, Md. My understanding is that the NPS has it for an indefinite period of time. They stored the uniform and it resembles th.e uniform in the images of the trial judges. BTW, the colar is velvet.
It doesn't appear that Wallace was more than average size for the time. The coat was restored by the NPS in return for it being on loan for an extended indefinite period of time. It has a beautiful velvet collar that appears original. |
