Scarce WWII Chinese Army "M-43" Type Cap with Nice Markings Inside

This is a scarce Chinese Army hat in the "M-43" style. The cap has a Chinese sun pinned at center front and a wide band with two plain brass insignia that goes around the entire perimeter of the hat. The lining is in tangerine linen and has a nice oval stamp at its center in purple ink.

Circa World War II.

No tag: approximate size 7 Ð 7-1/8.

Twill, leather, linen lining, brass, painted brass.

Stamp inside hat.

This is from a Chinese militaria collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-LL-XCEJL10 LFEJX3/11 RET4/11

6+ (Fine-Very Fine): The cap has some picks here and there on the twill and some limited and very small rust marks, the insignia is moderately worn and there are some gaps in the inner seam of the lining.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
