George Robert Sibold Hat, c.1890-1956

 Item — Container: Box 1

Scope and Content

From the Collection:

The George Robert Sibold Collection consists of a hat and a button.

The hat is navy blue with a black leather brim. Tied onto buttons right above the brim is red cord. The buttons holding the red cord are gold with the V.P.I. seal on them. Embroidered on the front of the hat are two crossing sticks and the letters "V" above them and "AMU" below them. Inside the cap is a black leather band. Printed on the inside of the cap seems to be a logo, but it is too faded to be made out. The condition is fair, there is some discoloration and moth holes throughout.

The button is an oval shape with a maroon border and orange center. Maroon text on the button reads "VA. TECH." with two maroon lines under it. Written in pen on the lines is "G.R Sibold "98." The condition is good.
