The rounded peak and soft leather sweatband suggest an earlier cap than the one shown in the museum, which has a more D shaped peak

A search on the museum's website brings up photos/details of peaked caps/hats over the years.

Yes, it could be, I have not studied red cross caps but from what I can see of the key features It could be wartime period

Great website, thanks a lot!...Well, as I can see, the only way to date a red cross cap as trully wartime period is about having the leather peak...
Jerry, I really admire your knowledges about caps (and your amazing collection!)...so if you think It could be possible to be wartime, I take that possibility ..Thank you very much! |
