Just had to show this ww1 group! Its like a time capsule of a period that is not coming out from family like it once was
in the 1960's!
My friend had got this group and as ww1 fades with time
I believe you will not see this amount of a soldiers
things in its un touched condition!

Denny,
Your cap is from WWI or just after by the shape and the use of blackened insignia. The buttons appear to be state militia but I can't make them out. The cap shape and bright insignia changed in 1926 so it would pre-date that. Some WWI veteran officers continued to wear this style cap but they changed out the darkened buttons and eagle.

Any idea about value? Around $100. I would think Denny.
