While many people are familiar with the Daniel Servos coat, an officer of the Indian Department during the American Revolution, operating out of Fort Niagara, few have had a chance to see the coat up close and in detail, owing to the distance that they may have to travel, as to do so. Serving as an immaculate example of a period coat, Servos himself operated as a member of the King's Regiment, though not before having served as a member of the British Indian Department (period terminology). This coat, as housed within the Niagara-on-the-Lake Museum, is a unique and marvelous period example of both construction, and textile details. We are pleased to share our images with you, for non commercial reference purposes.
