Italy, Kingdom. A Mutilati Association Official’s Overseas Cap

A well-preserved Associazione Nazionale Mutilati e Invalidi di Guerra (National Association of War Disabled Persons) officer’s overseas cap, constructed of slate-grey wool. It is fully surrounded by fold-down side panels with a sloping curve toward the front. Stitched onto the peak is an insignia consisting of a slate-grey backe, trimmed with machine-embroidered white piping, and bearing a central machine-embroidered Mutilati Association insignia of identical construction. The peak insignia measures 55 mm (w) x 65 mm (h) overall. The interior presents plain with the exception of a paper label on the left side bearing a size stamp of “56”. Otherwise unmarked, the cap measures approximately 275 mm (l) x 125 mm (h) when folded flat. Material fatigue is evident throughout the exterior wool, and includes small patches of mothing. It is in an overall fair condition.
