Looking for very specific style "kippah" (or, "yarmulka") which I wore for my Bar Mitzvah in 1962! I can't post any photo but it was the standard round, of white satin with silver thread embroidery. There were the stars, interspersed with the outlines of dreidels, around the circle. Probably squiggle in thread around the circumference and button or more decoration in the center. I do have a few photos that show mine but I can't easily scan them. They don't show much but enough.
This was a very common, standard style of "kippah" around the earlyl '60s for those of the "fancier" type. Condition should be decent and, obviously, a photo would be very useful though not essential if the description is accurate. I will pay royally for one and will pay royally! I'm sure there are many of these left in the U.S., Canada, or the UK anyway and elsewhere.
I searched about 20 years for a watchband like the one that came with my Elgin Sportsman in 1962 and was eventually successful!
