Uniform owned by Pullman Porter Robert Thomas, ca. 1920
A Pullman Porter uniform jacket and trousers owned by Robert Jackson Thomas. Being a Pullman porter was one of the jobs that helped build the black middle class in America, and Pullman porters were key figures in the civil-rights movement. The jacket is made from a heavy wool-like material with a two inch collar and lined with a lighter black textured fabric. There are six metal outer buttons stamped with " PULLMAN" and six inner navy plastic buttons running down the opening of the coat. Each sleeve has two buttons on the cuff and a small square textile design on the wrist. The outside of the jacket has single-welt pockets on the left breast, on the right hip, and in the interior liner of the right breast. A sewn label directly under the interior pocket reads " Wanamaker & Brown / Philadelphia" in yellow thread on black fabric
