Default Help with 3 Caps

Help with any information about these 3 caps would be appreciated (dates of use etc).

They came in a box with various other bits of militaria and I should advise that they are probably going to be moved on at some stage.

More pics to follow.

Many thanks, Ivan

First cap.

Aside from the obvious upside down APTC trade badge(!), any idea what the cap with red piping is?

The badge appears to have been on the cap quite a long time.

The second cap is a Scottish Glengarry with the makers name of W Jardine and Son Edinburgh.

Third and final cap. A bit more unusual this one and may be quite old. Perhaps a Victorian Glengarry (as used by English regiments as well as Scottish)?

There's a makers label inside saying 'Maugreen Hat, London'.

the piping and colour combo matches the King's Regiment c.WWII

Interesting comments Jerry, thank you.

Agree the Maugreen hat could be civvy, only ref I could find to the company was about ladies hats from 1920's/30's.

The Jardine example has no obvious puncture marks for a badge through the hat material but there is a faint pin mark on the rosette.

Very much appreciated, Ivan
