Ministry Of Communications Cap
Hi All-
I had a question about a new Ministry of Communications cap I just bought. Attached are the seller's photos. I read on another site that the velvet band with the black crown and blue piping is exclusively a Mining cap combination, and is not right for later Comms caps (which supposedly only had bands like the rest of the cap). However, the older Comms caps had the velvet bands. That said, I wanted to see what the experts here thought. This cap is dated 1983 and has the right cockades and Comms Ministry buttons. I acknowledge that the chin strap should possibly be the gold officers' type, but the rest of the cap looks okay to me. There seems to be alot of variation in non-military caps given available supplies at the time and whatnot. I just have a hard time thinking that this cap wasn't always a Comms hat, especially since it has the right buttons. So what's the verdict?? Thanks very much! -Matt |
