Good early example, with some serious use. If only it could talk!

There were no BEVO insignia on very early Meyer caps,they used the tropical cockade and tropical breast eagle for the tunics on them,BEVO insignia came later,first hand stitched and folded and then unfolded and maschine stitched,sometimes mix of hand application and maschine stitching , mix of folded and unfolded insignia is also possible.
This cap looks to me like early one with the longer visor and early applied insignia,maybe some buttons are replaced.Seen some action for sure
Best,
