Bandana
« on: October 10, 2015, 02:10:54 AM »
Is there any place to get period style bandanas? I've been looking around but most places only carry the silk "wild rags" or the small cotton bandanas. Anyone know if a good place to find period looking ones in cotton? I've seen quite a few pictures of guys at matches or living history events, hell even some movies (I know, I know..) but can't for the life of me find any for sale

Try 'The Fort' in Lincoln, Nebraska, and 'River Junction Trading Post'.

There are a couple of threads on this and the 'NCOWS' forum dealing with just this topic, so look through the 'back pages' to see who's been suggested as sutlers.

Pard, google southunionmills.com. It's museum quality stuff.

I second The learned Dave's recommendation.  All of the handkerchiefs are based upon surviving artifacts with direct provenance to actual soldiers during the War Between the States.  I purchased three handkerchiefs, including the Lt. Gordy handkerchief, who fought with the 3rd Geogria Cavalry.  He was from Chattahoochee County, right next to Marion County, my boyhood home.  I am distantly related to his family.

The handkerchiefs are top quality and you will not be disappointed.
