Visor cap question - Tretov - 06-24-2007

What model is this visor cap? Is it 1992-1994 transitional? Note the special color on the band. It is really "flying saucer" style (the way I like them...) and has a very impressive appearance. No date inside, just the size. The visor is plastic, not "oil".

You right with all

The wings on the crown look off center.....

And what exactly do you mean 'flying saucer style'? Like hat size? :confused:

by flying saucer he is referring to the size of the hat's crown and peak. the later model hats were HUGE (like flying saucers)

and yes i concur, the wings look off kilter

Maybe the crown wings are not off-centered, but a little twisted. Just turn the piece a little bit to the right and the star tip will match the seam.

The wings are indeed a bit off, perhaps he got into a spin and stalled. They shalt be corrected.

Thanks for the replies, folks :)

It'd be tragic to stall from something like that. :chuckle

Ah, I understand what you meant by 'UFO'--the sort of really style used in Federation caps nowadays (it seems as those cap crowns just got progressively bigger from their introduction).
