http://www.braceface.com/medical/images/civil%20war%20surgeon's%20coat.jpg I also tried finding pictures from old silent movies and horror movies, after much head scratching (because I know I have seen them, and I can't remember where...) I came up with this picture of a couple of makeup artists putting Boris Karloff into his Frankenstein paint: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/hmd/frankenstein/IIIB2.jpg (IIRC, the short sleeved one should tie in the back) http://www.georgetown.edu/faculty/irvinem/english016/franken/whale.jpg IIRC Dr Finkelstein in Nightmare Before Christmas wears one...
