    Description

    Before 1920 coal miner's wore a cloth cap with a lamp holder attachment. This one is in very good +++ condition with no rips, tears or repairs. The size is small, maybe 6 7/8. Possibly for a young man, my father-in-law started in the coal mines when he was 14.  Size tag sewn to the left side of the brim but is unreadable. Also included with the hat is a Auto-Lite carbide lamp made by Universal Lamp Co. Please look at all the pictures.
