---SOLD ---
Italian hat, mountain troops style, belonged to a Second Lieutenant of the 26th Field Artillery (transport by pack animal) Regiment "Rubicone". This regiment, formed in the 20's, was part of the 17th "Pavia" Division who fought from 1940 on the Tunisian-Libyan front. The very high shape and the wide front flap connotes it like an "old-fashioned" hat. The front badge embroydered with gold tinsel, number 26 in metal, number 6 has lost the gold plating. The hat is in very good conditions outside. Inside the leather strap has some broken due to the use and ageing. Black lining cloth still present.
