I have been actively reenacting the Old West, since the late 1960's, and have performed in both live action shows, and films, which required extras, and stunt people, familiar with the West, and the Indian, and Civil War, periods.
But, in those days...if we could not find the actual, authentic, clothes, and equipment to use...and the wardrobe department was unable to provide the proper items...we hand made everything we wore, ourselves. There were NO places like the Historical Emporium in existence at that time.
So, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your firm's existence!
I am now 70 years old, having just reached my 50th year of marriage to the same women, whom I MET in a STUNT SHOW, playing a Saloon Girl, where I first talked to her ON STAGE, for the first time. In celebration of this anniversary, we are throwing an Old West Party, on my ranch near Austin, Texas...where everyone dresses like its the 1880's...inviting everyone we know. This is why I bought my things from you people...and I cannot be more pleased I did so!
Thank you!!

They are exactly what you see on the website. Can't find these top-of-the-line historical clothing anywhere else.

Always a positive experience. Items are as described and arrive quickly and well packaged.
I am a museum curator and often wear period clothing and costumes. This is my favorite online shop by far!
