Size (in): 42″ x 28″ Size (cm): 106.7 x 71.1 Condition: B+ Linen Backed: Yes This vintage original and rare interwar period poster was issued by the United States Navy for recruiting purposes in 1934. Text on the poster reads. ROLLIN’ HOME Old Ports New Ports And The Home Port – Travel far, learn much and experience the thrill of your return With The U. The document code printed in the lower margin indicates this poster was issued in 1934 and the artist’s name, J. Burbank, appears in the lower righthand corner of the image area. Navy recruiting posters were issued during the interwar period making them much harder to find than posters issued during WWI and WWII. Posters from the interwar period tended to emphasis travel, the opportunity to learn job skills and other peacetime messages such as this example here. The poster has no tape or pinholes and doesn’t appear to have ever been hung up or used. This rare vintage original U. Navy recruiting poster displays beautifully. Overall condition is very good. If you have questions about how to pay for this item please let me know.

1938, ARMY LEVEL PRIZE, BRONZE, RIFLE COMPETITION, INFANTRY, NAMED, w/RESEARCH. This 1938 Infantry Army Level Prize for Rifle Competition was awarded to SGT John B. Morrissey, Company I, 107. SGT Morrissey was born on 30 January, 1908, Pocatello, Idaho. SGT Morrissey enlisted on 21 January 1936. When John Bacon Morrissey was born on January 30, 1908, in Pocatello, Idaho, his father, Harry, was 30 and his mother, Florence, was 23. He had two sons and two daughters with Anna R Morrissey. He died on February 3, 1982, in Aberdeen, Maryland, at the age of 74. These interwar Army marksmanship badges are highly sought after among collectors. We will include printed copies of the research artifacts. This Army level prize consists of three parts. Top bar that indicated either Army level or Corps / department level competition and served as a brooch to affix the assembled device to the uniform. The top bar is squared ended and ornamented with oak leaves, and was always worn with this bronze clasp and an enameled planchet prior to WWII. The top bar or brooch is a pin back with a functional rotating clasp closure. The second portion consists of an intermediate clasp of crossed arms to indicate the type of weapon that was used to earn the award rifle, pistol, or, soon thereafter, automatic weapons. In this case it has crossed rifles. The third, lower piece is a planchet, that when enameled, told the arm or the type of service, in this case, blue for Infantry. The central design is a bow and a pair of arrows. The planchet consists of three concentric designs. 0625 in diameter, displays a compound bow and two crossed arrows, a symbol of marksmanship. Outside of that is a center ring, 015 in width, which displays 13 stars. An oak-leaf wreath executed in bronze surrounds the entire design, making the planchet 1-1/2 in width. The combatant arms had bronze stars with the ring enameled in blue for Infantry.

Please review all pictures for overall condition and size, as this helps form the overall condition/description of the item. Wear is consistent with age and use. Unfortunately, this has got stuck to another one when it was being stored in the attic. It has some material loss and material from the other hat stuck to this one. The ribbons in the back are worn and fragile, one is barely attached still (by a thread). It is a very interesting and mysterious hat. We found it in my Girlfriend’s Grandparent’s attic with some military stuff. It has her Grandfathers name on a label sewn inside but he was in the Army Air Force. We tried to ask the family if anyone knew if he was ever in the Marines, more specifically the Marine Corp Aviation branch but nobody knew anything. It’s possible he got it as a gift also, or acquired it some other way. He possibly served in the Marine Corp, possibly the Aviation Branch before joining the Army Air Force. This beret/cap (we know, Marines don’t wear berets) seems like something unofficial and probably for shore leave or some other unofficial function. My Grandfather, is a Retired Career Vietnam Veteran Master Sargeant and he’s never seen anything like it. He’s shown it to some people who didn’t know anything about it. The company that made it, Browning King & Co have been making hats since the late 19th century. This hat seems like it is early 20th century most likely, 1910 to 1930s. Hard to be sure. We wish we knew more about it but it has been a bit of a mystery. Please message us with any questions, we respond fast.
