Original Item: Only One Available. This is a wonderful example of a Pre-WWII junior officer’s Evening Dress A uniform coat. It shows signs of moderate wear and is very ornately designed! The interior pocket label is named to a Lieutenant, but it is rather difficult to read but it appears to be Lt. Chris S. Baker, though our search results came up nil, making this a wonderful research opportunity!

Evening dress "A" For male officers, it consists of an evening coat with sleeve ornamentation, strip collar, white waistcoat, and white shirt with piqué bib. The stripe on the midnight-blue trousers is a thin red stripe inside a gold embroidered stripe. Female officers wear a mess jacket with scarlet collar, a white dress shirt, a red cummerbund, and a long skirt. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

Evening dress "B" is identical to Evening Dress "A" except men wear a scarlet waistcoat (general officers) or cummerbund (all other officers), and women may wear a short skirt. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

SNCO Evening Dress Male staff non-commissioned officers wear a semi-formfitting mess jacket with a black bow tie and sky blue trousers. Female SNCOs wear identically the same Evening Dress as female officers, minus the sleeve ornamentation and placement of rank. Both wear the jackets with historic 1890s-era rank insignia sewn on the sleeves. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

A blue boatcloak with a scarlet liner is optional. Junior officers not required to possess Evening Dress may substitute Blue or Blue-White dress "A". It is appropriate for such occasions as state functions, inaugural receptions and dinners, and formal dinners.

This is a wonderful uniform set in great condition. Nothing beats the regular enlisted Marine Dress Blues but the Evening Dress is a close runner up! All buttons but one appear to be present and as this is an evening dress they are purely ornamental. There is some fading present on all the bullion but there is no significant damage present on the exterior but there is stitching loss on the interior red lining.

This is a wonderful addition to any military uniform collection! Comes more than ready to be further research and displayed. Semper Fidelis Marines!

Very Pleased

Holds quite a bit of cigars. Air tight. The Bovida packets seem to last longer. Well made box. Very, very pleased. Highly recommend.

A classy gift humidor that feels more premium than its price.
Size: L ( Fits 25-50 Cigars)
I’m no cigar aficionado, but this humidor gives off a premium vibe. The cedar lining, glass top, and included hygrometer make it look and function just like other consumer-grade or gift humidors I’ve owned in the past. It maintains the right environment for storage, and the build quality feels solid for the price point. As a gift, it looks impressive and works as expected—definitely a worthwhile buy without needing to break the bank.

Solid cigar box with premium touches
Size: L ( Fits 25-50 Cigars)
This humidor ended up being way nicer than I expected for the price. The digital hygrometer is a great touch and super easy to read without opening it. The glass top feels sturdy and gives it a clean sharp look on the desk. The cedar lining smells amazing right out the box and really helps hold the humidity steady. I got the large one and it easily fits a good mix of sizes. Gave this as a gift to my uncle and he was honestly blown away by the quality. The value for the quality of this box is phenomenal. I love the digital monitor that gives you the humidity percentage, and having a "refillable" part that you use to humidify was such a big plus for me. Super easy to maintain, and super easy to glance at and make sure it is at the correct humidity. I love not having to wonder if I need to add more humidity and fear of ruining my collection! Must have for anyone looking for a humidifying box.

Season Well and It Still Might Not Work
Humidor was seasoned, per the instructions (and more). Yet it will not keep humidity above 60%. It appears the seal/gap is to wide because of the hinge placement. They need to be recessed a bit to create a tighter seal. I have 15 cigars in this box, plus a Boveda 69% 60gram package. Max humidity is 60%.
