[WWII] Sourcing niche/one-off reproduction items

I'm on the hunt for some 17th Pursuit Squadron ballcaps that were unofficially issued to members of the squadron in the Philippines in the 1940s. Originals probably don't exist given how the 1942 campaign ended, and they're such a niche item that there would never be a market for mass production.

Is there any place that could reasonably do a reproduction in period style/materials and not just put the logo on a modern cap? Or am I just out of luck?
