ELTON JOHN Personally Owned High Quality Cap (This is an unusual
item, [almost] directly from Elton's very own wardrobe. What we have
here is a baseball cap style peaked hat that was given by Elton to
Sylvia Griffin, a close friend of his then wife, Renate. This, however, is
no ordinary 'Baseball Cap' in that it was specially made for Elton by
Her Majesty's own Milliner, Herbert Johnson, of Burlington Street in
London. Herbert Johnson are reknowned worldwide for the high quality
of their millinery, supplying a variety of styles to both the personal
customer & the military. The quality of this item is obvious by the first
look. What will not, however, be obvious from the picture that you may
be looking at, is that the front, bobble & peak are edged in REAL GOLD BRAID & you can feel the weight
of it compared to a more modest cap. The cap is fully lined, with the
prestigious Herbert Johnson branding inside. Being a top quality item
like this from the Royal Milliner, the cap is made to measure & does
not have any adjustment facilities, so if you're planning to wear this
out, you'll need to have a head of similar size to that of Elton! An
incredible item that was actually once owned by Elton, in pristine
condition)
