2nd Ltn 142nd Infantry Catanzaro Bde. Look the differences between the prevoius O.R.s hats and this Officer's one.

Thanks for showing the examples. Great and rare items.
On your 90th infantry cap, This style have hat always had metal grommets or can they be without? And the crown insignia , Did always have the dots above the crown or can they be witout has well?


Thanks Joe Semen

With or without grommets.I've shown all the types. The 'crown' Infantry
badge had to be identical (except the number) to the one shown on #3.

Hello Joe,

Hallo Joe, i see something of better, IMO the badge is it a fake, the troop badges hand embroyed are all similars because the inner cardboard support was the same for all the numbers of the same regiment, this one isn' correct on the disegn and on the cotton thread.
The cap from what i see isn't a correct regolamentar cap for the troops soldiers.

Thank You for your help.

This helps me from making a costly mistake.
