The Cap Faction

[alanfgag]

Nice to see more photos of that one. Did it measure up to 7 1/8?

A Killer Cap Johnny!!

No Damian, I didn't purchase it. A customer sent it to me for repair and when it arrived I remembered seeing it on ebay.

Robert?

Robert?

I just spew my coffee!

Interesting small cap and leather sweatband:

It's a great cap, but I particularly like the green bow on the sweat; it makes me think of a four-leaf clover, a symbol of good luck.

...that's the kind of stuff my gramps would find for me.....as a little kid
though he called it 2nd hand ,,,,vintage was not used to describe cool old finds...

I'm sure the idea of applying terms like "vintage" and "pre-owned" was cooked up by someone in a marketing department somewhere simply because they sound better than "used". lol

Al - you're right about the resemblance to a four-leaf clover. Nice cap.

Johnny J and mystery owner that is a cool little cap. That fabric is an absolute knockout.

Yes, very cool cap and leather design. This cap was not a 7 1/8 and does not have a size tag. Fits tightly on a size 7 band block.
Not Roberts cap either. Someone out here in Los Angeles, Ca.

Johnny, is that leather done in 3 pieces?

 

[Stuffsmith]

His idea for show & tell, I swear.

 

[mikespens]

You've done well as a role model Keith

 

[Johnny J]

Johnny, is that leather done in 3 pieces?

No, its a one piece but its broken on the sides.

Southland Caps

Modest proportions. Perhaps mid '30's(speculative)? Adjustable with front buckle but I'm at the upper limit.

 

[alanfgag]

Nice... they look cleaner at your place than in the auction photos.

 

[Chepstow]

Splendid Caps Robert! Both have a nice fabric.

 

[Johnny J]

Cool caps Robert. A little on the small size for me, but still are nice!

 

[Baron Kurtz]

What kind of fabric was it JC? It kinda looks like tie silk.

 

[ManofKent]

Robert - nice fabric.

 

[mikespens]

Terrific pair Robert.

 

[Stuffsmith]

Beautiful, Robert - I got one of the others for use as a pattern!
