ABSTRACT:
A disposable visored cap or mask to be worn during outdoor or indoor activities to shade the wearer's eyes from the light, or as a cap or mask representing a club mascot or displaying advertisements. The visored cap, and blank therefor, is fabricated of a flexible material such as paper, cardboard, and the like. The blank has a first end edge, a second end edge, an arcuate fold line spaced from the first end edge defining a visor therebetween, and a straight fold line between the first end edge and second end edge defining an intermediate portion between the straight fold line and arcuate fold line and defining a front panel between the straight fold line and second end edge. To fold the blank to form the cap or mask, the intermediate portion is folded upwardly about the straight fold line to overlay the front panel, and the visor is folded in the opposite direction or downwardly about the arcuate fold line to project outwardly from the front panel. In a further embodiment, a cutout portion is formed through the blank centered on the length first fold line and centered on a bisecting centerline of the first fold line so that when the blank is folded to form the cap or mask and the cutout portion removed, coinciding notches are formed in the intermediate portion and front panel centered on the bisecting centerline of the visor for receiving the bridge of the nose of the person wearing the cap so that the the cap can be worn over the wearer's face as a mask.
