In Reply to: DrHose is right about the whip, but what is that thing hanging from the jacket over your buttox? posted by the Fiddler on June 17, 1999 at 13:13:22:
: The whip goes on the left side with the handle hanging to the right--so that the right hand can easily grab the handle and make it ready for use.
: but I have a question. What is that big long thing that appears to run up the whole length of your back (underneath your coat) and hangs out over your buttocks?
: Just a question, maybe I am just to tired and can't think staight enought to figure it out.
You're right, I never noticed the correct side. Makes sense--the whip
would carry easier on the left; but of course the un-hitching the
whip would be more deliberate.
I'll have to go back and take some more pics--NOT!
Thanks
