Gents,
Currently on the well-known auction site with a BIN price of $225.00. Appears to be a good one. Regards, slava1stclass Last edited by CtahhR; 11-07-2013 at 07:32 PM. |

Re: VP Hat
Nice hat but not "victory parade"; more like 54-55 than 45. The braid didn't go on to the visor of non-naval parade caps until the 50's. Buttons are post 48. Velvet band for armor?

VP Hat

Thank you - you're quite correct. I recognized it as a post-1945 cover but wasn't sure on the M-year so I left it with that title owing to its color. It also has the less pronounced aircraft carrier-sized crown of the later models. Yes, likely an artillery or tank troops cover. Regards, slava1stclass |
