Very nice tweed cap for fall, with an unusual crosshatched weave. From the labeling, I would say this one dates from the 30's or 40's.The brand states "Wings Headwear" and the tag states size as 7 1/4 - this is my size and it fits true to the label. The wool and the brim are in excellent condition - no holes, tears, snags or stains, but the sweatband, which appears to have been some type of leatherette or very thin leather bonded to cloth, has dried out and started to crack and flake. I would recommend replacing it - which could be done by a hatter or tailor. This is why I am asking only $25 shipped in USA. Overseas add $10.
