From myfather’s extensive collection of railwayana comes this NBR cap.
 I haven’t inherited his enthusiasm for all things steam-railway related, so I’ve had to resort to Wikepedia to find out more, but it appears this cap is around 100 years old, or more, since the North British Railway was absorbed into the LNER in 1923
 Overall, it’s in great condition considering its age. There are some marks in the peak, some of the yellow braid has been lost  on one side, and the stitching around the leather lining has worn through in places. I think the guarantee has run out by now though.   
There’s no size marked on it

 I have other railwaycaps for sale, please see my other itemsI am of course happyto combine postage
