Back row: Jeff, Gayle, Kay, Melissa, Judy, and LuAnn In 1979, my wife, Gayle and I started setting up the Quartermaster Shop tent at various reenactments and skirmishes around the country. We met a lot of really nice folks during the 25 years that we traveled. Since 2004, the years of traveling have taken their toll and we are no longer able to travel and set up “in the field”. However, I encourage you to visit our website and just like in the “good old days”, we will provide the best service we can and a quality garment that you will be proud to wear for years to come!

lissa, of our staff, decided to give “Sutlering In the Field” a try at the Jackson Michigan Reenactment. Just like Gayle and Jeff, they found that meeting new people, making friends and selling the garments we had made was a unique experience and certainly worth the extra effort. Since they are some of the seamstresses here who actually sew our garments, their plans are to attend 3 or 4 larger events for the next few years. Can’t sew and travel at the same time! Look for these ladies in the field and please stop in and say hello! Olustee, Florida 150th Reenactment, Feb 2014.. Ordering and Sizing Information All Caps pictured are proudly Made in the USA right here in our factory! Because many of the caps pictured in this catalog are Custom Order (and not returnable) an accu- rate head circumference measurement is ex- tremely important to have any cap fit you properly. To measure, take a tailor’s tape (cloth type) and wrap it around your head just above the ears. Pull the tape somewhat so that it is snug against the head but not too tight. If a cloth tape cannot be found, wrap a string around your head. Then lay the string on a yard stick or metal tape measure to read the circumfer- ence. Please supply us with the measurement in inches. We can convert the inches to your correct cap size. We use the American Standard cap sizing chart shown at right. Terms of Use: MASTERCARD, VISA, AMEX and DISCOVER credit cards are accepted. Money Or- ders and checks (will wait to clear the bank) are cheerfully accepted! Returns/ Exchanges: Stock Caps may be returned IN NEW CONDITON for refund or exchange within 30 days of purchase with receipt. Shipping charges cannot be refunded. Custom Made Caps are Not Returnable. We cannot be held responsible for Custom caps that do not fit because a customer has guessed at his size or provided incorrect measurements.

From observations of originals, it ap- pears very few of these caps were ever made or issued. By early 1862, the CS Uniform board changed the color scheme of the caps to the style most often seen in museums (other than all grey); a dark blue band with the top and sides colored in the branch of service colors. Other variations can be made based on proper documentation provided by customer. Our caps are lined with cotton and feature a 9 ounce leather brim, leather sweatband and adjustable chin strap.

Please allow 6 week delivery. A fine reproduction of the cap given to General Thomas J. (Stonewall) Jackson by his wife Anna in early 1862 is pic- tured above. The original cap is at the VMI Museum in Lexington, Virginia and is now faded to an almost tan color but still shows some evidence of it's original cadet grey color. Based on research by George Moor, a foremost authority on Gen- eral Jackson, it appears the cap may have faded early in it's existence, possibly even while the General wore it. Our cap is made using our top quality cadet grey wool and lined with black polished cotton. Around the cap, a strip of dark blue wool receives a 1/2" gold lace and is then sewn to the cap. The leather brim has a bound edge. Adjustable leath- er chin strap with Virginia State Seal buttons on the sides. We also offer the cap in a "faded" version. Due to the high quality dye used in our Cadet Grey Wool, the blue grey color will not fade out like General Jackson's original cap. Our top quality tan wool is used in the "faded" cap. Everything else is the same. Of course, what collection would be complete without a copy of the cap Jackson wore as a professor at VMI? A faithful copy of the plain dark blue forage cap used at First Manassas until he received the new cap from his wife. This cap uses the smaller 1/2” chin strap and is without a buckle – just like the original.
