The eagle is a repro ,machine sewn ?

[Glenn McInnes]

Hat certainly appears original. Agree the eagle is fake.

Cap looks O.K., eagle replaced with fake as stated. The soutche looks to be of the rough cotton variety, and in signals yellow.

Is the eagle machine stitched through the cap lining?

I see nothing that I like about this cap.

[Ian Hulley]

Judging by the eagle's feet some dying has taken place

The sortache is yellow and the eagle has been machine stitched but does not have stitching appearing on the inside and there is no alterations for the stitching to have been altered so it looks like the badge is the only one put on cap .There is also a faint stamp in the cap which I cant read.So is it a fake ?

[Richard P]

If the eagle was attached when the cap was made, then the entire cap must be bad as another has stated. Sorry.

Richard

[Glenn McInnes]

Yep,you had better pass on it...Good call OSS.

would it be possible to have a close wiew from inside grommet's crimping ?

[actionoke]

Inside grommet

[derka]

thanks for the pic, do you think it is identical to this one ?

[actionoke]

similar but my edge seems larger in circumfrence

[derka]

you mean the washer circumference seems larger, like on this one ?



and are there some kind of "irregularities" in the crimping punch ( sorry, not sure it is the proper word in english), like on this one : uncut (in red), small cut (in yellow), larger cut (in blue)
