Overcoat
Made by Hart Schaffner & Marx
Sandburg's "city coat and traveling hat" would hang at the ready for him to leave Connemara for a lecture engagement. Not only were these trips financially necessary for a father supporting a family, but they supported his restless pattern and periodic hunger for the changing landscape and faces of America.
