1940s Junior Space Cadet Beanie Hat

This charming wool felt 40's Vintage Junior Space Cadet beanie hat is a rare piece of mid-century aerospace cultural history. Designed in the 1940s, it features unique plastic charms and was originally part of a set that included matching felt boots. 

The hat is an authentic vintage piece from the 1940s and remains an intriguing collectible for those with an appreciation for aviation memorabilia or rare children's vintage fashion. A similar hat is on display at the St. Louis Science Center,(display image shown for reference) underscoring its historical significance and the rarity of finding one in such a unique design.

While the hat shows signs of age with a few tears in the cellophane brim and some moth holes (which have been professionally treated), it remains in fair vintage condition and continues to capture the whimsical spirit of the era.

Size: 17 inches inner band circumference.
