Grand Army of the Republic Kepi

The 14th Corps badge symbolizes the soldier’s resilience in the field hen nearly starved, reverted to roasting and eating acorns to sustain themselves. 

Superb G.A.R. kepi mounted with an exquisite blue velvet and gold tape bullion corps badge that appears to be a wartime example. Internal features of this cap are of a black lining with the complete leather sweatband. In excellent condition.
