Original era manufacture. Light OD, hbt fabric billed cap as worn during hot weather by USAAF mechanics. The popular "cool guy" wearing style by Air Corps ground crew, was with the bill turned up and the wearers hometown written on the underside. This is one such example, with the underside of the visor painted in yellow marking paint "Rochester N.Y.". The hat shows honest wear and use with several small repairs visible. Size about a 6 3/4.
