Materials

The foam backing on the crown has begun to degrade, and while mostly holding its shape still, it crumbles easily with any contact or movement.

Structure

The stitch work is severely compromised and if not handled carefully is likely to disintegrate and compromised the structural integrity of the hat (as seen in 2004.14.161).
