VPI Cape , n.d.
Scope and Content
This VPI Cape is made of a navy blue wool and red wool lining. There is a single hook clasp on the collar and just below the hook is a black cord loop. Above the hook and under the collar is a separate piece of material which can fasten to buttons on the underside of the right and or left collar. When these are fastened the collar stands straight up. Across the chest is a black frog cord. Stitching is present where it is assumed a label once was, no labels are present. The condition of the cape is fair. There is some minor discoloration on the frog cords, hem coming unsewn where it had been doubled up, right button missing under collar, label missing, stains on lining, and possible moth holes in lining.
