Description
Classic Officers Grade Forage Cap with Original Embroidered Infantry Insignia Classic Officers Grade Forage Cap with Original Embroidered Infantry Insignia. This commercially produced cap is a larger size than usually encountered and has the look of a "veteran," with an appealing amount of minor fading and period wear. In the rear seam are sewn "stays" to stiffen the curve. On the front is attached a large embroidered infantry bugle with the number "83" fixed in the bend in small false embroidered silver numerals, held fast with two loops secured with a leather thong. The broken chin strap carries a large beveled brass buckle in the front, fixed on the cap by two eagle "I" buttons. The visor is bound and the interior is completely intact with 1 3/8" leather sweatband showing a few small tears and black cotton lining with Paris embossed makers mark. There is no moth damage and the entire piece is sound. A piece with a lot of character.Auction Info
