THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC, VINTAGE 1958 US ARMY ENLISTED MENS WOOL HAT IN A SIZE 7 1/4. THIS INSIDE OF THE HAT IS STAMPED, "CAP SERVICE WOOL SERGE ARMY GREEN 44 ENLISTED MENS CLASS 4 - B405-286-50 59 - 6 MAY 1958 CONTRACT #DA-36-243-QM (CTM) 2181 - MIL-C-13998 (QMC) - PATTERN DATE 9 SEPT. 1954 - SANDLER - PHILA. QM DEPOT - 100% WOOL EXCLUSIVE OF ORNAMENTATION." IT IS MARKED "R3897" IN A MAGIC MARKER. THE INSIDE OF THE HAT IS MARKED "8" INSIDE OF A SQUARE. THE FRONT CENTER PORTION OF THE HAT HAS THE GOLD METAL US ARMY EMBLEM, WHICH IS THE BALD EAGLE AND SAYS, "E PLURIBUS UNUM". T IS A LEATHER BANDING GOING ALONG THE FRONT OF THE HAT THAT HAS TOW SIDE GOLD BUTTONS WITH THE EXACT SAME EMBLEM AND WORDING AS THE CENTER, LARGE GOLD EMBLEM. THE ONLY THING THAT I SEE WRONG WITH THE HAT IS A TINY PIN HOLE AT THE TOP. THIS COULD BE REPAIRED, BUT I WANTED TO KEEP IT AS IS TO KEEP ITS ORIGINALITY ALIVE. TO BE 50 YEARS OLD, IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND COMES FROM A NON-SMOKING, NON-PET HOME. THIS IS A MUST-HAVE ADDITION FOR ANY COLLECTOR OF MILITARIA MEMORIBILIA. TRUST ME, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED! I ACCEPT PAYPAL WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE AUCTION'S CLOSING. IF THIS IS NOT CONVENIENT FOR YOU, PLEASE EMAIL ME PRIOR TO BIDDING SO PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE. I SHIP OUT VIA UPS THE FOLLOWING DAY AFTER PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. IF YOU WIN MULTIPLE read more
