Description

St.Petersburg Guard's Regiment Officer's Cap
Wool body, partial leather interior with maker's stamp, leather sweat band, fibreboard lacquered visor, metal officer's two-part cockade.
Wool exterior in good condition, but cap is mis-shapen due to storage use(photos 4,7). Leather interior is damaged in several places with some staining, most notably on sweatband, is brittle in places and has torn loose from interior (photos 7,9)
A faint blue mark is slightly visible on the white cap band (photo 1) also probably resulting from storage use.
