Complete with double strengthened visor, light tan leather sweatband marked ‘J.Daniels & Company Limited, Woolwich & Chatham’, the inclusion of the postcode ‘SW1’ after the address indicates the cap could be from the 1920’s, it was not until 1918 that the postcodes were instituted in inner London. Slight staining to the upper inner silk otherwise an excellent untouched attractive piece.
