vintageproductions Posted August 30, 2015 Share #1 Posted August 30, 2015 What is the designation on the pre-war mechanics cap? It is made out of hbt and snaps like a newsboy's cap. Is it an A1 or an A2? Does anyone have a photo? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomfixer Posted September 8, 2015 Share #2 Posted September 8, 2015 From Vintage Flying Headgear, Mick Prodger, 1995, Pg 167 the first is an A-1 that has ear flaps that can be stowed inside the cap...and the second is an A-2 "newsboy" style, in what appears to be HBT. Hope it helps... John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
