Russian M35 caps began the practice of identifying the wearer's arm or service (or branch) by differing band and piping colors. These caps were also characterized by spade-shaped (or square edged) visors, although rounded (semi-circular) visors were also worn infrequently, especially by those who could afford to have custom-made caps, such as generals. The crowns of these caps were relatively small and round, with a low rise in the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cap with black piping and a dark blue hat band would have been worn by a Cavalry officer for service duty and for dress. The crown is green wool and there is a black oilcloth chinstrap which is held in place by two likely bakelite buttons. The visor is made of spade-shaped fiberboard. A brass and enamel M39 star is pinned through the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior crown bears a plethora of period stamps and markings including a large maker’s stamp for a maker in Moscow over the size, 7. There are two other boxed stamps and the numbers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e17580\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e49\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is some tearing in the sweatband but this is rather minor.
