Hey Everyone! I have got today just one of the many visor caps that I will be selling over the next few months. Please continue to watch my other auctions for more outstanding items to come!Up today is this magnificent WWII Merchant Marine Officer's visor cap! These are fairly rare caps, and this one even moreso because of its condition (mint) and large size ( 7 1/2). This is a spectacular hat!The cap has a black wool top in mint condition. Affixed to a band circling the cap is a brass Merchant Marine officer's insignia; it's developed a nice patina over the past 65 years. The visor is in excellent condition (a few scuffs, nothing big), and the underside is a checkered dark green, a feature distinctive of WWII. The bullion chinstrap has tarnished a little bit, but it is in great condition otherwise. The sidebuttons are appropriate WWII USMM issue. The cap has a fully attached and supple leather sweatband, upon which is embossed Style 305 in silver. The cap was tailored by L. Strauss & Co. of Indianapolis. The cap is a LARGE size 7 1/2 . You'd be hard pressed to find a better example of this kind of cap. What a wonderful addition this cap would make to any collection! I will work with you to make this a great experience as buying on ebay should be. All questions are more than welcome and heartily encouraged. I appreciate you looking
