Erel Visor

[Marvin]

Just a question. Did Erel make caps that they did not mark with there company name.

If the cap was made via an RZM license, it was marked soely with the RZM license number for a cap factory, and had no maker's logo,
because the RZM prohibited such logos after early 1935. But don't quote me.

Here is a 1938 ish or so RZM tag for the black SS peaked cap from the Fa. Lubstein.

I am not a Lubstein fan boy, by any means, but there were Lubstein products of various kinds without the eReL trademark, but of Lubstein make with other trade marks,
but others here fuss about these things much more than do I.

Marvin, yes, they did--you will find unmarked visors made in the late 1944-1945 period.
(Some are very faintly marked, others not at all).
We call these the "M-45" Erel.
There is a thread on these here:
