Swiss or german/austrian visor cap?

Article about: Hello Guys! I bought this cap today. The cocade and the badge shows swiss qualities, but inside it exactly looks like a WWII german cap (visor is light brown and the liner band is leather).

    It is told what about this cap is by ErWeSa.
    Litto was quite and old headgear manufacturer from Vienna in Austria.
    They made caps for the SS in the early 1930's anyway.

    Here shown a page from volume 4 for the headgear-series:

    from the moment it says WIEN, it must be Austria, as Vienna is the Capital City of Österreich.
    And its NOT a swiss flag even thou it does keep some resemblance. But the swiss cross does not extend thru the whole red field.. Look at some swiss flag and you´ll see what i mean..
    Thats correct

    Knowledge of heraldry and geography, to say nothing of language are requirements. All these things allow the collector to prosper.
