I don't know a source, but classic trencoats are made either from cotton twill gabardine or smooth popeline.
Go for pure cotton (with waterproof finish) only IMO.

But alas... a giant size.

"Red baiting" had plenty unsavory types... but this shouldn't excuse the wilfull blindness, apologetics and fullfledged support of Communism (including Stalin and Mao) by many of...
Wallace was a typical "naive" Soviet sympathizer who saw Stalinism through rose tinted glasses. At best it was gullibility and poor judgement. To his credit he himself admitted as much by the 1950's. Mercifully he never became President.
