Newsboy Cap Wool Clarksville TN Tots Teens Shop Vintage

This is a vintage Newsboy Cap.  I found it in an estate sale near Elkton, KY.  It is a child's size medium wool cap.  I do not know how old it is, but imagine pre-1950, if not as early as the 1920s.  It is perfect for a vintage clothing collection or for use in theater as a period costume piece.  In the lining there is a crest along with the text: "Made Expressly for Tots-Teens Shop, Clarksville Tenn."  There are little nibbles in the wool as it was stuffed in the bottom of a box of old handmade baby clothing, in the back of a closet.
