As hard as it may be to imagine, this item actually qualified as football headgear, circa early 1900s. A very nice example of the flat top design, the leather lid bears sewn-on ear flaps and comes with its original chin strap. The creases and wear to the leather are a testament to the use it has seen, adding only quality to its vintage appearance, and it remains in great shape with no rips or tears, a treasure from another era.
