Description

WWI American Red Cross Woman's Motor Service Tunic, Skirt and Hat. A loden green wool four-button front tunic with attached epaulettes and four patch pockets with matching skirt with two patch pockets. The tunic has a cotton twill "American Red Cross Motor Service" patch on the upper left sleeve. All Red Cross buttons are present, and all hooks, snaps and buttons are present on the skirt. The ensemble is in excellent condition with no moth damage; however the material has aged giving it an overall "greener" appearance. The matching French-style overseas hat is complete with the proper enameled insignia and in excellent condition. There is a Mandel Brothers, Chicago tailor tag removed and inserted one of the pockets. Women's uniforms from the WWI period are not frequently encountered, and seldom in this condition. From the Collection of the American Red Cross.
