LOL! 1mach1, when I've made another few of this one and can get my production time down under four days ( think I'm joking?!), I will work out how much I can sell them for. Thank you for asking, and others for private messages!
 
Another one that's far too large for me. This G. A. Dunn & Co cap is size 60, and probably dates to the 1930s. I'll be selling this soon, should anyone in that size be interested.

It does, yes, from what I remember of that suit. It's pretty standard (prob the most common) British construction of the day. Another one I sold to Marc, made in UK for an American dept store - I forget which ([EDIT] it was Saks) - was the same.

[ANOTHER EDIT] Yes the sweatband is leather, with Real Roan Leather embossed.

I'd like to extend the invitation, for those who just can't get enough, to join me in a new 'closed' cap group on Facebook called 'Cap Department'. It's been up for a few days and has been a blast so far. Viva la bunnet!

I want to make clear that the Cap Department is not a replacement for this here fine and dandy forum. I love this place and I'm sure it will have a long and healthy life. I just have lots of contacts on Facebook that aren't part of the lounge, and I know there's crossover between the two. The more the merrier, I say!

Having an outlet where people can gather and share their fondness for something that is a positive influence in their lives (and will hopefully influence the lives of others in a positive way) is a good thing. The more the merrier? You bet! Spread the word! :thumb:
