    Looks like the caps worn in the Scottish Rite. They have plenty for sale on evilbay. Removing the Eagle isn't difficult.

    I would disagree. The AASR caps are similar to a pillbox cap worn by British mounted units (the Northwest Mounted Police, for example) and by American army officers during the late 19th century -- in fact, that is where the AASR caps most likely come from.

    However, an AASR cap looks nothing like a Kilmarnock/Hummel bonnet.
