Original French WWI Era Model 1886 Officers 51st Infantry Regiment Kepi Japanese Army the 100th was allowed toOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a nice World War One era French Infantry Model 1886 kepi in good condition. This is the lower height style kepi they first started using after phasing out the floppy or "bummer" type kepis. This style was only worn for a short time during WWI into the early 1920's. This example is a high quality kepi, most likely a private purchase. Interior has a leather sweatband and no manufacturers markings present. Size
