VERY RARE Early American Classic Deerskin Trunk, Brass Tacks, Iron Hardware, 1800
Posted by admin On October 27, 2021
Extremely Rare Original Spanish American War Military Issue Straw Hat, Brought Home as a Battlefield Souvenir by a US Sailor on the U. VERY RARE original Spanish American War black straw hat. Issued during the hot weather military combat and brought home by the identified US Sailor from the USS FRANKLIN. Scans show it all. Nicely made of a straw type of material and issued that way….. Then stained black as an added protection against the sun and weather. Has a nice 5-pointed star sewn on the center of the crown…… Made of cloth, with military gilt sequins sewn on it, as shown. Nice 3/4″ wide black hat band attached around the base of the crown as shown, with nice Navy “tail in the back. Has nice 1 1/2 wide leather head band inside the crown. Inside sweat band is dry, and several cracks, but it is all there, relatively sound, and all in place. On the top of the inside crown most of an original ownership label remains, on which is written: William P. I assume that this was the Navy sailor who wore the hat since it was brought home by this US sailor. Hat is in very good. A few occasional flaking spots only. Has one small hole in the back of the brim which appears to have been put there to hang it on a nail. Bottom measures about 12″ x 12 5/8″ overall. Inside head opening measures 6 1/4″ wide x 7″ long. Crown has a gentle slope to it, and is 3 1/8 high. On the outside the brim is about 2″ wide in the back and 2 1/2″ wide on the sides and in the front. I was also told that this could have been an enemy Spanish battlefield/combat souvenir taken by this sailor, although I don’t know. Seems more likely that it belonged to the US sailor. I have never seen one of these available for sale. VERY OLD AND VERY RARE, ESPECIALLY WITH THE OWNERSHIP ID!!
