Its been while since I posted anything here so thought I would share my find for this year. Picked up this Super Rare Navy Felt Anchor Wool Field Cap in January of this year on Fleabay. It was a buy it now and came from a "picker" who found this and a white navy field cap at an estate sale. Unfortunately, no other information came with the caps. This is one of only two known to exist in the US, the other owned by another member here. These are normally associated and seen worn by Japanese Naval Landing Forces.
Named to a Seaman First Class Tanaka (Tanaka-田中, Issui 一水) and possibly the unit (Second Harbor 二港), Cap size is 3 (Small) and Dated (April ???) unfortunately the year is very hard to see.
