One stall at the fair had a box full with BW Luftwaffe schirmmützen, all in bad condition and dated fairly modern (90's). But this piece, dated 1961, was hiding on the bottom. Small size 52.
A good quality cap IMO.

Souval blank core with a piece of postwar ribbon. The ribbon ring seems to be made of a different material (brass?), could be a replacement. The frames are glued together.

Comments are welcome.

I hope I can show you my other cross tomorrow, it hasn't arrived yet.

Ingrid....great RS blank core EK ! These are rare to find.....it took me two years of looking !
Now you need to find a first class !
Prost ! Steve.

P.S. I have just bought a "B" frame early pattern core St u L RK..I will post when it arrives......

In the mail today. This EK2 with a long piece of ribbon. The cross is maker marked '3'. It has nice frosting, but not as nicely polished as the S&L pieces IMO.

Comments welcome.

A nice marked Deumer Ingrid, still a decent early quality piece though!

Ingrid...the only EK II I do not own ! other than an Assman..and I would not know if I did anyway, as they are unmarked (unlike the first class) and use St u L parts ! That is nice condition number "3" ! see here they are still in business History « Deumer ....typically German in they do not mention the War !
Prost ! Steve.
