MVD (Interior Ministry) Troops Officer Service Visor Hat, dated 1957.

The crown is in olive drab napped wool with royal blue piping and magenta band. Features characteristically compact early shape, small visor and plastic chin strap. The hat badge is a nice early type in brass and enamels. The liner has a stamped logo of the Moscow Headgear Factory showing the 1957 date of manufacture and size 56 (US size 7 / Medium). Factory quality control stamp to the underside of the sweat band certifies "1st rate" quality.

In excellent condition, very uncommon for a hat of this type. The hat is completely free of moth bites or tracks, which is particularly un

The crown is in olive drab napped wool with royal blue piping and magenta band. Features characteristically compact early shape, small visor and plastic chin strap. The hat badge is a nice early type in brass and enamels. The liner has a stamped logo of the Moscow Headgear Factory showing the 1957 date of manufacture and size 56 (US size 7 / Medium). Factory quality control stamp to the underside of the sweat band certifies "1st rate" quality.

In excellent condition, very uncommon for a hat of this type. The hat is completely free of moth bites or tracks, which is particularly unusual for the napped wool material. There is a very faint trace of what looks like a sticky label on the crown that was removed, leaving a whitish contour of it. Otherwise, the exterior as well as interior are immaculately clean and fresh. The band and liner are practically free of wear; the factory logo is perfectly preserved and fully legible. The hat has held its trademark shape perfectly. A truly superb early piece.
