Kentucky Colonel Uniforms (Civilian & Military)

The Kentucky Colonel much like the Emperor, has no clothes, but a Kentucky Colonel is certainly not a colonel without clothing nor through the impersonation of a mythical ideal or fictitious character, because it would be a disgrace to the Office of the Colonelcy and the Honorable Title, unless being done to garner attention in farce. If there is a such thing as an "Official Kentucky Colonel Uniform" we would have been first to know about it. This is not to say that Kentucky colonels did not wear costumes, distinctive clothing and uniforms.
