Description: | mark, stamped, with crest, RNLI
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) was founded in 1824 when nine local lifeboat societies merged. Today the RNLI still maintains lifeboats all over the country, provides rescue equipment and trains the crews. This protective cap, also called a 'bump' cap, was worn by a member of a lifeboat crew. It is made of hard plastic with a padded interior. The RNLI crest is stamped on the front.
Material: synthetic, plastic
