Uniforms of Custer's 7th Cavalry

[kufram]

Hello to everyone. I need to acquaint myself with the uniforms of Custer's troops for a project I've been working on. Pictures (probably none of those), drawings, descriptions, etc. ... anything will be appreciated.

Any kind of references or guidance will be appreciated as this is my first stop.

thank you
