Very Rare WW1 Childs Kaiserliche Marine Cap.
A beautiful and very rare cap worn by the young boy apprentices of the German navy from 1872 to 1918.
This piece comes in just wonderful condition, as a dress cap it wouldn’t have been worn very often and even less at a time of war.
It is made of a dark blue wool material and it still has its original Deutschland cap tally and its original cockade. The inside is also in very good order, you can see it has been worn but beautifully looked after. I wonder what happened to the young boy who owned this cap, did he graduate into the navy and serve at Jutland or any other sea battle. A very fine piece of German youth memorabilia in remarkable condition.
