To me yesterday was Washington's Birthday. When I lived and worked in the D.C. area in the mid to late 1960s the Washington's Birthday sales in the stores on F Street were incredible. I remember buying a formal coat and tails which fit me like it was tailored for me for $22. I gave it to a close friend my size who played in the National Symphony. He wore it at performances requiring such attire.
