ASTP, 1975, Deke Slayton's "Leather" Vaquerro-Style Hat. This brown leather, unlined hat is well worn and obviously loved. There is a partial sweat band in the front and early plastic decorative lacing around the brim. It looks as if there originally was a signature on the inside back of the crown which has faded over the years. No distinguishing markings as to maker or history make this a true mystery for the connoisseur. Worth a second look.
Estimated Value $250 - 350.
Ex. the astronaut Donald K. "Deke" Slayton Family collection.
