Gentlemen, I just "discovered" this forum, while doing research for a post on the TMA forum (I am a moderator on this forum http://www.traditionalmuzzleloadinga...pbb2/index.php )

I saw this post & I might be able to assist in the ?? about HBC "blanket" coats (Capotes) Contact me if I can be of help. We (those involved on the TMA forum ) have a VAST amount of info on this subject (how to make, styles, sources ETC.)
