American Made News Boy Caps By Mulligan Gear
Although Flat caps have been around for 600 years, the Newsboy Cap with its rounded shape, 8 panels with button on top became popular with News Paper sellers on American city street corners and members of the Association of Lumber Handlers (later called The International Longshoreman's Union) in the 19th century. It was American’s that developed the Newsboy Cap and the British then created a version called the Baker Boy Cap. These Days, these styles are often called peaky blinders style or simply peaky caps
These caps are true Americana.
