Vintage Knights of Columbus 4th Degree Chapeau & Hard Carrying Case Set**

**Condition:**
The chapeau is in very nice vintage condition. The interior sweatband and lining are fully intact, and the outer black velvet/felt material is clean. The white feather plume remains intact and fluffy. The carrying case shows normal exterior scuffs, light surface wear, and age-appropriate oxidation on the metal latches from storage, but it remains completely solid and structurally sound to protect the hat.
