| General George Washington Caroler |
In 1776, George Washington served as Commander-in-Chief of the overpowered Continental Army fated for independence. He rode to battle wearing a dark blue uniform likely based on the one he wore as commander of the Fairfax (Virginia) Independent Company in 1775. At 6 foot 2, Washington towered over many of his contemporaries, and was an excellent horseman. With gold threaded epaulettes, brass buttons, and buff trim highlighting his collar, lapels, cuffs, waistcoat, and breeches, Washington was an imposing figure to his men and enemies alike. The General George Washington Byers' Choice Caroler is hand-crafted in Pennsylvania, is 14" tall and available exclusively at Mount Vernon.
