Italian WWII Black Bustina Field Cap

The “Bustina” field cap was originally introduced in 1933 and was worn by both Army and Fascist militia personnel, with minor variations.

Black wool field / service cap with fold down side panels with flaps, held over the top of small metal snap. Fold down front visor in the upright position. A bullion embroidered fascist wheat symbol is neatly hand sewn to the front. The cap is fully lined with black smooth cotton. Inside with caps original maker mark tag which reads: “Forze Unite Torino Via Lagrange, 6”. The cap is in very good, still used condition. The liner has one small wear hole.

Nice and pretty scarce!!
