An original 1955 dated military Kilmarnock Balmoral Bonnet as worn by various Scottish regiments.
This example is typical of the period. It is made from wool and features a red white and blue diced headband and tails to the rear.
The interior of the cap features the original markings including the size of 7 1/8, the 1955 date and the War Department broad arrow marking. As well as this there is a War Department acceptance stamp.
The overall condition of the bonnet is good and it displays well. There are a few moth nips and other signs of age and wear so please study the pictures before purchasing.
A nice example of a military issue bonnet with a clear date.
