Important Added Info: Note that this cool candid still shows Gary Cooper wearing a French Foreign Legion cap, which, to protect Legionnaires from the sun, has a "wimple" made of cotton that makes it look like a "woman's hat", while Susan Hayward (described as "newly discovered actress who plays the feminine lead") is also wearing a hat with a wimple, but this is a ladies' hat that apparently the studio hoped would become the latest craze, "The Beau Geste wimple"! Also note that this still measures 7 3/4" x 9 1/2" [20 x 24 cm], but it does not appear to be trimmed. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
