    Hello,

    Nothing extraordinary, but here is a Yukon cap worn normally in Canada. The manufactuer is Buffalo Cap, dated from 1944 with a name ''Brown''.

    What you have is a Yukon Cap and not a toque. The yellow stamp is a superimposed CWA for Canadian War Assets which means that it was sold as surplus during the latter half of the war as in a nutshell the Canadian Government knew it had an excess of war materiel, so some items were sold off.
