New York WW1 Doughboy Swap & Sale

Saturday, February 25, 2017, 11:00am - 04:00pm

About The Event

The Doughboy Swap & Sale: Announcing the first one-day event in New York City for World War I reenactors to find uniforms and equipment, and to meet others who are passionate about living history. A proper Doughboy impression starts with a basic uniform: At this event, we’ll bring together reenactors and vendors with items specific to World War I, from boots to helmets.

There is no cost for admission and no charge for dealer/vendor tables. The event is hosted at the historic Samuel Young Jr. American Legion Post 620 in the Bronx.

In one room look for collar discs, overseas caps, haversacks, cartridge belts, uniforms, and more. Talk to others who are knowledgeable about World War One reenacting. If you are new to the community, come to the Doughboy Swap & Sale and improve both your impression and your knowledge of the uniform requirements.
