It is a nice Officers' private purchase General Service beret

Near impossible to tell if it is WW2 or post-WW2 but the odds are in favour of it being wartime

Value is approximately £25+ IMO.

Thanks, from Jack.

Hi Mark, I would pretty much agree with Jack. The cap is more than likely WW2 in date. In fact, most fashion conscious officers purchased a khaki beret proper, one peice construction with leather sweatband, etc. The GS cap was never a popular item, so I somehow doubt it would be post war. I might be a little more generous on "value" and say £35 or so.


Cheers, Ade.
