US Navy 1950s USS Acme Cap and when a rescue chopperWhilst its hard to date exactly, I believe this beauty of a cap would have been made in Japan in the late 1950s for an officer sailining on the USS Acme. This is a great example of a 50s Japanese made cap, with a wool outer, cotton lining, and coloured seam tape. Condition In beautiful condition. There is a little light fading to the wool, but largely very nice Size Fits around a modern 7 1 4 Approx 57cm inside the brim
