JB4244 Posted May 1, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 1, 2012 Hello, I found this cap today, in a garage sale for $13. It's amazing to find this here ! It's an USMC officer cap from WW2, I think. EGA and strap are absent, if someone have these, I'm buyer. Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry K. Posted May 2, 2012 Share #2 Posted May 2, 2012 Hi JB4244, Nice hat, wish I would have found it. Looks to be post war, maybe even post Korea to me. Never the less a nice hat. Is it white cover or tan. If white takes gold and red strap with gold buttons. If tan, black strap and brown or black buttons. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB4244 Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share #3 Posted May 3, 2012 Hi Terry, Yes, it's a post 1954 cap and it's a white cover which is dirty. So I search gold and red strap with gold buttons and an officer EGA Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry K. Posted May 3, 2012 Share #4 Posted May 3, 2012 Hi, I would take the cover off and have it dry cleaned. I bet it would look nice. I may have strap and buttons, have to look. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Hudson Posted May 28, 2012 Share #9 Posted May 28, 2012 The white label with red writing does indeed date it to the mid 1950's or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
