Perfectly legitimate period cap by Otto Dittmer Dresden. In the future, I would advise against removing insignia as ypu may break a mounting prong or not be able to reattach it properly. This is a bad habit I have seen fostered by newer internet collectors.

The Fa Dittmann was in the Alberstadt, in Dresden Neustadt, the garrison area of town in the north. I own a cap made by them of which I am very proud.
It is a cap maker seldom seen, but deserving of high collector interest.

what do you mean with ''dittmer"" ? tought it was ''dittmann'' .. see picture below. and you are correct, it is a bad habbit. The old prongs break of way too easy. But I do only remove the insignia when they were taken of before (like in this case)

Relax. It was just a typo.

Moreover, the Hoheitszeichen you question is exceptionally common and easily had, in the event the badge were fake.

nice original cap but as Bob said, please do not remove the cap eagle and then re-bend the prongs... it is almost 80 year old metal you are dealing with...

You can only bend and rebend metal like aluminum just so many times before it will suddenly break. And there is no way to know when that one time will be...
