Set in 1926, The Sand Pebbles is full of many different types of U.S. Navy uniforms from the time. One of my favorite details is shown when Steve McQueen’s character rolls up the sleeves of a shirt to show the liberty cuffs hidden underneath (similar details can be found on some Mister Freedom pieces).

Update: Here’s an interesting find on etsy for a jumper with dragon liberty cuffs, a close match to those in the film.
