It has been miss-shapen from footlocker storage, and is shifted way sideways but can bend back straight. It has all of it's original components, and even the sweatshield is intact with no cracking. The leather sweatband has no tearing or wear and is marked "erel" and has the deluxe venting; it is still thoroughly attached. The wool is the very high quality type associated with this maker and other high end manufacturers, with a nice doeskin dark green band.
The visor bill looks like it needs to be cleaned, but is firmly attached and not cracked or split. This is an original visor cap right from the footlocker that will need to be straightened, but is all there and with nice insignia will look wonderful.
