<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 1769197, member: 6444&quot;]I checked the pins on his coat with a loupe and don&#039;t think it is &#039;43&#039;. That said, I don&#039;t know what it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t know clothing history. At least some seem to have long coats. But could be it is the older guys with longer suit coat lengths, so was there a change in style from longer to shorter, and if so when?</p><p><br /></p><p>Flipper found a similar picture, but taken outdoors. The most similar picture I could find online, with drapery background, is church deacons from 1888. Don&#039;t know where else to go. Is it time to give up on this one?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.zocalopublicsquare.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/nypl.digitalcollections.510d47da-76f1-a3d9-e040-e00a18064a99.001.w.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
